Monster Cookies

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, add in the butter and peanut butter. Beat with a hand mixer on medium until creamed.

Step 3

Add in the brown sugar and granulated sugar and beat until light and fluffy.

Step 4

Add in the vanilla extract and the eggs one at a time. Beat in the first egg before adding the next. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, add the oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir with a spatula to combine.

Step 6

Add the dry ingredients in with the wet and beat on medium just until the flour is worked into the cookie dough.

Step 7

Add in the milk chocolate chips and candy coated chocolates. I typically use 1/2 of a cup of regular and 1/2 cup of mini candy coated chocolates.

Step 8

Stir until the chips and candy are evenly distributed in the cookie dough.

Step 9

Using a 1 1/2 tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop the dough onto the prepared cookie sheet. Place in the oven and bake for 11 minutes or until the edges begin to turn golden.

Step 10

Let cool on the cookie sheet about 5 to 10 minutes before moving to a wire rack or paper towel to cool completely.

Step 11

Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
