This requires a lot of tinkering to get a bold, malted flavor. I doubled the malted milk powder and, since chocolate malted milk powder is predominantly sugar, I cut back on the sugar to compensate. It still had an only subtle malted flavor and was still too sweet. What I do like about this recipe is that compared to others the chocolate doesn't dominate. However, since so much more chocolate malted milk powder is necessary than is called for in this recipe, I think next time I'll use regular ol' malted milk powder which has no added sugar, then flavor to taste with a squirt or two of Hershey's chocolate syrup.

I made this and also doubled the malted milk powder and balls. I add a hefty squirt of chocolate syrup since I wanted more chocolate flavor. It made 2 1/2 qts and tastes wonderful, not too sickening sweet. Definately a keeper. It would be good for milkshakes too!

Yummy!! My husband made this and I thought he didn't chop the malted milk balls enough. I was surprised that the malted part didn't get mushy. Good flavor. We had to freeze in two batches and the second batch was creamier and we're thinking it's because it had more time to chill before freezing therefore, not having to churn as long = less air in the ice cream. Will do again.

This was the first recipe I made in my White Mountain Ice Cream maker. It was perfect. I also recommend increasing the amount of malt powder and malted milk balls. This recipe was a winner and will be made again!

I altered the recipe, and as suggested to add more malt powder & crushed malt balls to create more flavor. I added 1 cup chocolate malted milk powder & 2 cups chocolate malt balls. It was excellent! Very creamy texture and tastes very close to Thrifty's 'Chocolate Malted Crunch'! :)

Tastes just like a frosty. I did screw up and added vanilla malt powder instead of chocolate. To fix I added cocoa powder. Won't be buying store ice cream again
