Oatmeal Peanut Butter Monster Cookies
My family's favorite oatmeal cookie. Loaded with peanut butter, chocolate chips, and M&M's. Always a hit!
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter softened to room temperature
- 3 ¼ cups creamy peanut butter
- 2 ⅓ cups brown sugar
- 1 ½ cups sugar
- 1 ½ tsp corn syrup or honey
- 1 ½ tsp vanilla
- 4 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp salt
- 6 eggs
- 2 ½ cups M&M's
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1 ½ cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- 9 cups old fashioned oats
Instructions
- Soften butter to room temperature. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cream butter, peanut butter, sugars, corn syrup, vanilla, soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl till very creamy, 2-3 minutes. Add the eggs and mix well.
- Stir in M&M's, chocolate chips, and oats till well combined. (Dough will be fairly sticky.) I like to reserve some chips and M&M's to press into the tops of the cookie dough balls before baking.
- Form tablespoons of dough into balls and place them onto silicone lined or greased cookie sheets. Flatten cookie dough balls with the palm of your hand.
- Bake at 350° for 9-10 minutes.
Notes
- There is no mistake, these cookies have no flour.
- These cookies don't spread as much as traditional cookies, so you can flatten the dough a bit before baking.
- I find that using old fashioned oats is best, the quick oats make a drier cookie.
- For large bakery-style cookies, use 2 1/2-3 tablespoons of dough and bake for about 12 minutes.
