So, here they are and they look wonderful and taste delicious (according to Vince)! And thanks to Courtney who was visiting and helped. Never have you seen such Whopper cutting in your life!
Bars:
4 oz 70% to 72% bittersweet chocolate, chopped
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, cut up
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup malted milk powder (I used chocolate ovaltine.)
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, room temperature
1 yolk, room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Frosting:8 oz. white chocolate, chopped or 1 cup white baking chips
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cut up
1/2 cup malted milk balls, halved
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 9-inch square baking pan with foil; spray bottom of foil with cooking spray.
2. Microwave bittersweet chocolate and 10 tablespoons butter in medium bowl on medium for 1 minutes and 30 seconds; stir. Continue microwaving in 15-second increments until completely melted and smooth. Cool to room temperature.
3. Whisk flour, malted milk powder and salt in small bowl.
4. Beat eggs and egg yolk in medium bowl at low speed 15 seconds or until blended and slightly frothy. Beat in sugar in steady stream 15 seconds or until combined. Beat in chocolate mixture and vanilla 15 seconds or until just combined. Stir in flour mixture until just blended. Spread in pan.
5. Bake 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted 1 inch from side of pan comes out clean and when inserted in center comes out with a trace of chocolate. Cool completely on wire rack.
6. Meanwhile, combine white chocolate, cream, and 1 tablespoon butter in medium heatproof bowl. Bring small saucepan of water to a simmer; remove from heat. Place bowl with chocolate mixture over water (bowl should not touch water). Let stand until ingredients are almost melted; stir until melted and smooth. Refrigerate 10-15 minutes or until spreadable consistency, stirring occasionally.
7. Spread frosting over brownies; top with malted milk balls, cut-side down. Remove from pan using foil; cut into bars.
*Notes: I made a double batch, so I used a 9x13 pan. Also, I find that if you are going to use foil, you have to spray the heck out of it with cooking spray. But when you do, the bars come off very easily.
