These are awsome! They have no flour in them; the oats work as it, so there is no need for it. Makes a ton of cookies, and you can put pretty much anything you want in them, hence the name Monster! These cookies don't last long at my house!!!

Categories     Cookies     Chocolate     Dessert     Bake     Kid-Friendly

Yield 36 Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 eggs
1 1/4 cups packed light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (12-ounc) jar chunky peanut butter (a little more wont hurt)
1 stick butter, softened
2 teaspoons baking soda
4 1/2 cups quick-cooking oatmeal (not instant)
Now here is where you get to put in whatever you want - any candy will work:
Tried/Good Combos:
MMs, Hershey bars, Reese's pieces, Hershey kisses
Also I did pretzel, raisins, with the above and less Reese's (the salt/sweet combo is the best)
In the future other things to try:
Dark chocolate/white chocolate
Using nutella instead of peanut butter
Andies mints etc.
Marshmallows (this is more of a risk - google how to add them, it looks like you may want to freeze mini marshmallows first)
Caramel something with pretzels

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or nonstick baking mats. 1. Beat the eggs and sugars 2. Beat in Add the salt, vanilla, peanut butter, and butter. 3. Beat in baking soda, and oatmeal 4. Put in fridge for 30 min (unsure if this is needed, but some people said the dough was too sticky, I did this and it was perfect, also try upping the oatmeal) 5. Divide dough if you plan to make different kinds of cookies. 6. Mix in candy. It is possible to over do this step but if you its ok see below. 7. Drop cookies on pan, and try and get them to stick together as much as possible. You can do balls larger than a tablespoon and they come out great. Flatten cookies a little. Then with the excess candy, insert into the dough on top so the cookies are candy coated as well. Note: This cookies do not spread that that much, so even space is not a huge issue. 8. Bake for 9 minutes. Be sure they come out still a little doughy looking! Let stand for a few minutes then transfer to wire racks. 9. If using the next day, store unrefrigerated (so they stay softer) in an air tight container.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients you use, the better your cookies will taste. Look for fresh oats, high-quality chocolate chips, and creamy peanut butter.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature. The cookies should be baked at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until they are just set.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying them. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cookies to firm up.
