Malted Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies

I think I found the perfect Valentine cookie for this year. I was surfing the net for cookie recipes and stumbled upon this recipe at Cookie Madness. I made a few changes and came up with a chocolate chip cookie that  is to die for!! It is a crunchewy cookie that has a hint of Malt and is sure to be a hit .
