EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Make your cupcakes stand out at the next bake sale! Pick up fun foil or fancy, decorated muffin cup liners at cake decorating or party supply stores.

The malted milk balls will be easier to crush if they are frozen. Freeze them in a food-storage plastic bag for about 30 minutes. Then tap the bag with a rolling pin or meat mallet until the balls are coarsely crushed.

I pride myself in being a fairly good baker and looked forward to sharing these Malted Milk Ball Cupcakes with my co-workers. They love my cupcakes and were looking forward to tasting them today. NOT! The flavor was good but the texture was terrible. I baked two different batches thinking perhaps I had done something wrong. The cupcake papers were hard to remove without the cake sticking to them. So, I had the expense, the mess and the disappointment of having nothing to share on this day when so many were looking forward to a treat. I'm sorry to have to write a bad review but wanted to share my experience with this recipe. ~Mona

This is in response to a previous comment.The reason yours turned out brown I am willing to bet is you probably used chocolate flavored malted milk powder.It comes in plain or chocolate. The only way yours would have turned out brown was using chocolate flavored instead of plain.
