These Monster Munch were a little too messy for my taste, but they were still delicious. I'll definitely make them again, but I'll be sure to use a bigger bowl next time.

I'm not a huge fan of Monster Munch, but I have to admit, these were pretty good. I especially liked the chocolate chips.

I love that I can make these Monster Munch ahead of time and freeze them. It's so convenient to have a sweet treat on hand when I need one.

I've tried several different Monster Munch recipes, and this one is by far the best. The cookies are soft and chewy, and the frosting is perfectly sweet.
