  • 2 tablespoons milk

  • 1 2/3 cups malted milk balls, coarsely crushed

  • 2
    In large bowl, stir together dry cake mix, 1 cup malted milk balls and 1/4 cup malted milk powder. Add water, oil and eggs. Beat with electric mixer on low speed 2 minutes. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups.

    Bake 21 to 26 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pan. Cool completely, about 1 hour.

    In medium bowl, beat frosting ingredients on medium speed until smooth. Frost cupcakes. Sprinkle with 1 2/3 cups malted milk balls. Store loosely covered.

Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    Make your cupcakes stand out at the next bake sale! Pick up fun foil or fancy, decorated muffin cup liners at cake decorating or party supply stores.
  • tip 2
    The malted milk balls will be easier to crush if they are frozen. Freeze them in a food-storage plastic bag for about 30 minutes. Then tap the bag with a rolling pin or meat mallet until the balls are coarsely crushed.
