More Daney goodness 😊. There's nobody on this channel that I don't enjoy seeing, always a pleasure and long may it continue 😊😊😊.

[@danepemberton136]

Thank you so much! 🙈

[@BelindaNeal66]

I love Malt Extract and Malted Milk biscuits echoes of my childhood. Combined with chocolate what's not to love! Great invention Dane.

[@danepemberton136]

Thank you so much! I hope you get to try it ❤

[@abdulahmed-hg9cx]

I like how u dipped the top part in chocolate and looks really nice 👍🏽

[@danepemberton136]

Thank you ❤

[@MrShinentwist]

They are ALL SO TALENTED,

[@sachae321]

I LOVE ❤️ how everything is weight based. SO MUCH EASIER than mixing liquids in ml vs dry in mass! Thank you so much. love😍😍😍

[@danepemberton136]

Of course! ❤

[@MrShinentwist]

Oh if only I had Dane’s whisking talent!

[@abdulahmed-hg9cx]

Great job Dane 👍🏽

[@CaribbeanLife101]

Looks delicious. Thank you Dane. Always a pleasure to look at your videos. You are so eloquent. 🙂

[@shellykeith2252]

I have a couple of substitution questions, as some of the ingredients I am not able to come by. Double cream : Could I substitute heavy whipping cream? I know that heavy whipping cream has less fat than double, which could lead to a dry (or sometimes a weirdly greasy) cake and may impact the batter’s ability to rise. Could I add more sour cream (for the dryness) and baking soda (leavening agent) to make up the difference? Malt Extract: I cannot find malt extract. Can I use malted milk powder, dry diastatic malt powder, dry non-diastatic malt powder or dry soda fountain malt powder? If that is an ok substitute, in the recipe you use 60g of the malt extract, how much do you think you use of the powder? Horlicks: Online, I see that there is Horlicks original classic malt plain, Horlicks original malted hot drink, Horlicks malted milk powder, and Horlicks traditional. I don’t know what the real difference is between these since I didn’t grow up with this drink. Is there one preferred for this recipe? Many thanks!

[@danepemberton136]

Hey! Yes to the cream, horlicks and malt extract sub, I would check out the bourbon chocolate cupcake recipe and use the horlicks original in that. As I’m unsure the amount you would sub for malt powder because I haven’t tested it. And I would use horlicks original, in the blue tub. I hope that helps 🙌🏽

[@d.denissemm]

These are soooo incredible!!! Mouthwatering! Dane is a king!!!

[@abdulahmed-hg9cx]

These ultimate chocolate malt cupcakes 🧁 looks really nice and delicious 😋

Used to lOve Horlicks malt sweets from the Pharmacy. Thank you for this creation. I shall try to make these.

[@danepemberton136]

Thank you ❤

[@chopinaddict1787]

These are good. I made them as directed. They held up well in the fridge and were better the next day. Dane, have you ever looked at old copies of Chocolatier magazine? Lots of high end cake recipes can be found there. Top pastry chefs often divulged their recipes in that publication.

[@sajaniekanayake9823]

Def gonna make them! Love it 💙

[@AnnathePiana]

Could you please make some items with coconut? Its one of my favourite flavours, but it's so subtle that I can't get it to be really noticeable.

Dane your so polished and professional these look amazing my efforts to make chocolate cookies I do everything by the recipe but they always burn on the bottom why do I need a new oven ?❤️😊

[@danepemberton136]

Thank you so much. It sounds simple, but I’d suggest turning the oven down a little, or it might be the setting. Some ovens have a top/ bottom heat setting x

[@Jen_B]

HOLY DIVER!! 🤤🤤🤤🤤 Would you need to store these in the fridge because of the cream filling?

[@nigelstockley7011]

Haven't seen Malted Milk biscuits since my childhood. Used to call them "moo cow" biscuits.

[@lillianlee1360]

Hi Dane, the cupcakes look delicious. Thanks for sharing the recipe. I couldn’t find malt extract. Can I substitute it with malt chocolate drink like ovaltine instead? And how much will u recommend? Thanks in advance 😊

[@danepemberton136]

Thanks! I’m unsure as I haven’t tested it with this. If you’re in the U.K. try in Holland and Barrett. If not and you want to use horlicks, I would use our recipe for chocolate bourbon cupcakes instead x

These look DELECTABLE! One question for you though... I have heard that European desserts are much less sugary than the USA. Have you found that to be true, or are they equally sugary?

This is true!

Could I use malt drink powder (like Horlicks) instead? If so, how much would I substitute?

How much should you cool the melted chocolate/oil down before adding the eggs?

[@rachelgigg8047]

I normally do until the bowl is cool to the touch :)

[@danepemberton136]

Not long, a couple of minutes. It’s only a small amount

[@fizorahim8199]

Can I substitute the malt extract with horlicks in the batter?

I can’t get malt extract. Can I replace it with Horlicks? If so how much Horlicks to use and do I have to increase any liquid as Horlicks is in powder form? Kindly advise. Thank you 🙏

[@danepemberton136]

You could definitely replace with horlicks. I can’t say for certain how much, as I haven’t tested it with the powder vs liquid

[@jesskeuk4712]

Thank you so much for the prompt response. Your choc malt cupcake look sooooo good. Will definitely try making it 🤞🏼

Could you please put this recipe into American/Canadian ingredients. I.e., cups thanks

[@muber9788]

I live in the USA and most of the recipes that Ive had for decades are in gm/ml. Get a scale. You won't be sorry and you may very well see a difference in the finished product. I use several different scales and one of the best that I have is a twenty dollar scale from Costco!

[@kurinezumi]

I'm American and once you go scales you'll never go back. It's easier, cleaner, and kitchen scales aren't expensive. Seriously, try it.

[@TheJollyBlobster]

I audibly groaned seeing the thumbnail. So embarrassing 😆
