These Malted Milk Funfetti Bars are a true crowd-pleaser! I made them for a potluck party, and they were the first dessert to disappear. The bars are soft and chewy with just the right amount of sweetness. The malted milk flavor adds a unique depth of flavor that keeps you coming back for more. Will definitely be making these again!
