Jeanette from The Breeze Auckland has been flicking through old recipe books and found a delicious recipe for Favourite Malt Squares in the 1970s book 'The New Zealand Television & Radio Cookbook'.
This book has hundreds of tried and true recipes submitted by viewers and listeners all over New Zealand, including a recipe for "Favourite Malt Squares" submitted by J. Dickens of Mount Maunganui. It's super easy and super delicious!
