With wooden spoon, stir in granulated sugar and vanilla. Beat in eggs until well blended. In small bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt; stir into chocolate mixture.

4. Prepare Malted Milk Topping: In small bowl, stir together malted milk powder, milk, and vanilla until blended. Stir in butter and confectioners' sugar until blended. With small spatula, spread topping over cooled bars; top with chopped malted milk ball candies. Allow topping to set.
