Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, slightly softened
  • 1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tbsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp corn syrup
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 4 1/2 cups old fashioned oatmeal
  • 1 cup M&M's or more - I used 10 oz. big M&Ms

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350° F and prepare a couple large cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream butter, peanut butter, and sugars.
  3. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
  4. Beat in corn syrup and baking soda, then oatmeal and M&M's.
  5. Drop onto cookie sheets with an ice cream scoop and flatten slightly.
  6. Bake at 350°F for about 12 minutes or until done. Do not overbake!
  7. Remove from oven when slightly golden. Let cool on the sheets for a few minutes until they have firmed up enough to remove to wire racks.
  8. Freezing: Roll unbaked dough into balls and freeze on a cookie sheet. When completely frozen, remove dough balls to freezer bags. These will stay good for several months, depending on how sturdy your bags are. Bake straight from the freezer; they will only need an extra few minutes in the oven.

Monster Cookies have been one of my favorite cookies for as long as I can remember. There are lots of variatons on the web - but this looks a lot like the ones I used to have all the time!


I too am a longtime Monster Cookie lover. Thanks for another recipe. = )


I made these yesterday and they are delicious! Everyone LOVES them. Thank you for the great recipe...I also added chocolate chips.


This is the recipe i have been looking for,ty so much. I always wanted the one with the corn syrup in it. I make these for my autistic son by using Splenda brown sugar and Splenda with sugar free m&m's so he can enjoy some of the thing I did as a child. My recipe cuts the sugar content enough so he can have 1 cookie a day after school. Ty ty ty again!!!

Yummers...
