Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is fluffy and light in color, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, malted milk powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and milk chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, form balls of dough (about 1 1/2 tablespoons each) and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
