It's an Oatmeal cookie, chocolate chip cookie and peanut butter cookie all wrapped into one delicious chewy scrumptious treat! This is my favorite cookie! Especially warm, just out of the oven, with a cold glass of milk! Make them as large as you want....I make mine smaller because I like them thick and chewy. I use a tablespoon to scoop my cookie dough. Notice these have no flour in the ingredients so you don't want to over bake them. Take them out a little early and they will continue to bake while in the pan cooling.
Monster Cookies
1¼ cups chunky peanut butter
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 cup granulated white sugar
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
3 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
4 cups quick cooking, 1-minute oats
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup M&M's
½ cup caramel bits
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Using
a hand mixer mix together the peanut butter, brown sugar, white sugar,
and butter until creamy. Mix in eggs, vanilla extract, and oats. Next, stir in baking soda, salt, oatmeal, chocolate chips, M&M's, and caramel bits until blended.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop
by rounded tablespoon onto lined baking sheet. Flatten slightly with a
fork dipped in cold water. Skip this step if you like a thicker, chewier
cookie. Press a few extra M&M's into the top of the cookies if you’d like.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Do not over bake. Let stand for about 3 minutes
before transferring to wire racks to cool. Cookies will continue to bake while cooling in the
pan so be careful not to over bake in the oven. Place cookies on a
cooling rack to finish cooling. Enjoy!
