Ingredients

Makes about 375 g (2 1/2 cups)

　　1 recipe Milk Crumb (page 74)

　　60 g Ovaltine, malt flavor (3/4 cup)

　　90 g white chocolate, melted (3 ounces)

　　

Step 1

Toss the milk crumbs with the Ovaltine malt powder in a medium bowl until all of the crumbs are a light brown.

　　

Step 2

Pour the white chocolate over the crumbs and continue tossing until all of the clusters are enrobed. Then continue tossing them every 5 minutes until the white chocolate hardens and the clusters are no longer sticky. (The result will be just like the original milk crumb, but with a cheetah-like spotting of light brown malt powder.) The crumbs will keep in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer for up to 1 month.
