MONSTER COOKIES

These cookies are large and should be soft, so should not be overbaked. They have no flour.

Provided by Daphne

Categories     Oatmeal Cookies

Yield 120

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 eggs
4 cups white sugar
4 cups packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups butter
2 cups peanut butter
18 cups rolled oats

3 cups candy-coated milk chocolate pieces (such as M&M's®)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Tips:

  • Use smooth peanut butter for a creamier cookie. If you only have chunky peanut butter, you can blend it until smooth in a food processor or blender.
  • For chewier cookies, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape better.
  • If you don't have oats, you can use an equal amount of flour instead. However, the cookies will be less chewy.
  • Be careful not to overmix the dough, as this will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown. The centers of the cookies will still be soft, but they will firm up as they cool.

Conclusion:

Peanut butter monster cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their combination of peanut butter, chocolate, and oats, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet snack, give these peanut butter monster cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
