Notes
Maltesers: You have the freedom to select any flavor of Malteser that suits your taste for this recipe; the options available are limitless!
Top cookies with Maltesers: I strongly suggest reserving a portion of the Maltesers, giving them a rough chop, and sprinkling them on top of each cookie prior to baking. Incorporating the Maltesers into the cookie dough might result in them getting lost and not being as visible, so adding them as a topping enhances the look of the cookies, providing a subtle crunch as well.
