My four grandsons started attending "Grandma's Cooking School" when they were as young as 4. These easy monster cookies are a favorite of the youngest, Brandon. He has fun making them and is always delighted with the results, as is the rest of the family. -Helen Hilbert, Liverpool, New York

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies didn't turn out well. They were too dry and crumbly.

I love how this recipe uses oats instead of flour. It gives the cookies a nice chewy texture.

These cookies were a hit with my family! They were super easy to make and turned out perfectly gooey and chocolatey. I'll definitely be making them again soon.
