Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together brown sugar, granulated sugar, butter, and peanut butter with an electric mixer at medium speed until well mixed and fluffy.
- Add eggs and vanilla; continue to beat until well combined.
- In a smaller bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Add to peanut butter mixture and mix until just combined.
- Add quick oats and mix until just combined.
- By hand, stir in chocolate chips and M&Ms.
- Drop dough by 3 tablespoon scoops onto a baking sheet, scooping only 8 cookies to a sheet (because these cookies are big) and spacing the cookies apart. Use your hand or the bottom of a drinking glass to flatten each dough ball into a patty.
- Place additional chocolate chips and M&Ms on the top of each dough patty.
- Bake at 350℉ for 10-11 minutes until set and light golden brown. Allow to cool on pan for 3 minutes, then remove to a rack to cool completely.
- Use regular creamy peanut butter, not crunchy or natural peanut butter. Crunchy and natural peanut butter are drier than creamy, and will therefore make dry cookies. (I use JIF creamy peanut butter.)
- Be sure to scoop these cookies large -- a full 3 tablespoons of dough per cookie (a cookie scoop makes this step extra easy). Scooping Monster Cookies large creates a nice-sized, nice-thickness, soft and tender cookie.
- Placing additional chocolate chips and M&Ms on the top of each dough patty before baking is key to get that characteristic colorful and extra-loaded Monster Cookie top. Press the chocolate chips and M&Ms just slightly into the dough to embed them on the top of the cookie.
- Do not over bake, as the Monster Cookies will turn rock hard. Bake for just 10-11 minutes only, no more. I always bake mine on the 10 minute end.
- Once baked, allow the cookies to cool on the pan for 3 minutes before removing them to a rack to cool completely. They are prone to cracking and crumbling if you try to move them off the baking pan too soon.
- As a side note, 3/4 cup M&Ms is about 9 Halloween fun size packs, if you happen to be using up extra Halloween candy to make these!

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt and rolled oats. Set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer combine butter, light brown sugar and superfine sugar. Beat until creamy. Add egg and vanilla, and beat again until smooth.
- Add flour mixture to butter mixture, and beat until smooth. By hand, fold in chopped pecans and M&M's.
- Roll quarter-cup measures of dough into balls and flatten them into fat disks (about 1/2 inch thick). Place on a parchment-lined or greased baking sheet, about 6 at a time, so they have room to spread.
- Bake until cookies are risen, dry on surface and very lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. They will be too soft to lift from baking sheet. Set aside to harden for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Tips:
- Use a large bowl to mix the dough, as it will be very sticky.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking, as this will help the cookies to hold their shape.
- Bake the cookies in a preheated oven, as this will help them to rise evenly.
- Do not overbake the cookies, as they will become dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.
Conclusion:
Monster cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their combination of oats, chocolate chips, peanut butter, and M&Ms, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a sweet snack, give these monster cookies a try!
