Monster cookies are a great cookie to send through the mail as a gift or to sit and eat in the comfort of your home.
They contain a number of yummy ingredients of which you can mix and match or change to your liking. We have a peanut butter lover in the family. So I was sure to include peanut butter baking bits. But feel free to use, whatever you like: choc, peanut butter or butterscotch chips. Want to really change it up try cinnamon chips.
I like to use Pringles cans for mailing mine. They fit just right and the large can, can hold anywhere from a dozen to a dozen and 1/2 of cookies. Just remember to make them small enough to stack them up in the can. I used my medium cookie scoop so that they would all be around the same size.
Don't be afraid to recycle other containers for shipping cookies too: oatmeal boxes, potato stix cans, even plastic soda bottles can be used.
1 stick butter, softened
2 teaspoons baking soda
3 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats
1 cup all purpose flour

Monster
Cookies
1 stick butter, softened
1 12-ounce jar Jif creamy peanut butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs
3/4 cup M&Ms Semi Sweet Baking Bits
3/4 cup Hershey's Mini Peanut Butter Baking Bits
¾ cup unsalted Planters Dry Roasted unsalted peanuts1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs
3/4 cup M&Ms Semi Sweet Baking Bits
3/4 cup Hershey's Mini Peanut Butter Baking Bits
2 teaspoons baking soda
3 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats
1 cup all purpose flour
Preheat
the oven to 350°
In a large bowl, combine the eggs and
sugars. Mix well. Add the salt, vanilla, peanut butter, and butter. Slowly mix
in the baking soda, oatmeal, and flour. Stir in the M&M's, peanuts and
chocolate chips. Drop by tablespoons 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie
sheets.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Let stand for 2
minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool.
Notes:
I always do a couple of test cookies and time them. I start out at 8 minutes check them. If they are not done I then add 3-5 more minutes. Once I figure out the time. I then bake them by full sheets.
I used the medium cookie scoop. It took 12 minutes. Smaller cookies will take less time; larger
cookies of course will take more time.
Enjoy!
