Ingredients

Chocolate Malt Filling

  • 18 large marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • dash of salt
  • 4 ounces cream cheese (half of an 8-ounce brick)
  • 3/4 cup pure cane powdered sugar
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 3/4 cup malt powder (Carnation brand seems to be easiest to find in US)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 prepared chocolate cookie or chocolate graham crust

Whipped Topping

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup pure cane powder sugar
  • 3/4 cup crushed candy malted balls (about 1 cup whole before crushing) (Whoppers here, Maltesers in UK)

Instructions

Chocolate Malt Filling & Assembly

  • Combine marshmallows, chocolate chips, butter and salt in sauce pan on medium to medium high heat, stirring constantly until melted.
  • Remove from heat. Cool until it is at room temperature (about 45 minutes); or pop in the fridge to speed the cooling, set aside.
  • In a large bowl combine whipping cream, malt powder and vanilla. Using an electric mixer (I like KitchenAid) at high speed, beat until very stiff peaks, set aside in refrigerator.
  • Place the cream cheese and powder sugar into a large bowl. With an electric mixer beat until creamy and no cream cheese lumps.
  • With the electric mixer on medium, add in the cooled chocolate marshmallow mixture and the malted whipped cream mixture; it will look like milk chocolate.
  • Spread the filling into prepared chocolate crust. Refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours.
  • Make the whipped cream topping: Whip whipping cream for the topping with the powder sugar and vanilla with an electric mixer on high until stiff peaks form, careful not to over beat. Refrigerate until ready to use. Garnish pie with whipped cream and crushed malted milk balls.
