I still enjoy these cookies; I’ve introduced my husband to them and he now enjoys them, too. So much, he’s like a cookie monster when they’re out of the oven – ready to gobble any crumbs, or even a cookie!
All sentiments aside, here are the ingredients, a few photos and the steps to make your very own Monster Cookies. I hope you’ll enjoy these sweet treats as much as I have and that you’ll share them with the ones you love.
3 eggs
1 c. brown sugar
1 c. sugar
1 T. vanilla
¼ T. syrup
2 t. baking soda
1 c. peanut butter (creamy or chunky, your choice)
4 ½ c. oatmeal
100 grams chocolate chips (or chocolate bar, chopped)
100 grams M&M candies (peanut or plain, your choice)
Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl. Drop by spoonful onto a cookie sheet or other baking tray and bake for 12 minutes in a 175 degree Celsius oven (preheated). Do your best not to over bake, unless you enjoy crunchy cookies. On a side note, this recipe makes about 2 dozen cookies, depending on the size - I like to split the dough and freeze half for a special, easy treat another day!
Once your cookies are ready, sit down with your tea or coffee and enjoy a few of these yummy cookies, maybe invite a friend to share in the fun!
Note: These cookies are a great option for anyone with Gluten intolerances; however, are not recommended for anyone with peanut allergies.

Cortney - is there any chance you could come round to mine and bake my husbands birthday cake???? My first attempt is burnt to a crisp. I'm a disaster!... ;D
ReplyDeleteP.S These cookies look so yummy that he might get them instead!!!
Sorry for being so dim now but I have a few questions:
ReplyDeleteIs c. a cup & T. a tablespoon and t. a teaspoon. Is the vanilla a vanilla essence or something else & what type of syrup, maple or golden?
I am going to try these as soon as the pancake hangover wears off.
Hi Tanya and ooakie,
ReplyDeleteapologies for delay in response - internet issues!!!
Tanya, Iw ould be most happy to bake your husband's birthday cake, although, by now it's too late. So maybe for next year ;)
ookie, to clarify for you.
c = cup
T = Tablespoon
t = teaspoon
For the vanilla extract or essence is acceptable, with essence the flavor will be a bit stronger. And syrup used makes no difference, it's mainly an agent to keep the ingredients "stuck" together.
I still have a small batch in the freezer - might have to have them as a treat later in the week, although I still have a chocolate cake with peppermint frosting to finish!!!
