Of course, when I found myself with a few Valentine's Day leftovers - namely an uber chocolatey cookie and a Malteser chocolate bar that I didn't even know existed, I wanted to see if I could push the whole chocolate-malt combo to the max. I picked muffins as the vehicle for this mashup, mostly because they're almost impossible to screw up and besides, how can you say "no" to a muffin? The mixture started with a basic chocolate muffin recipe, which turned into a spelt-flour "catch-all" treat using the last dribbles of milk, homemade condensed milk, morning-old coffee and molasses along with the crumbled cookie bits and the chocolate bar. Moist, rich and just slightly malted, they appealed to everyone I offered them to, polarizing be darned!
