The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup butter (room temperature)
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • 3 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk or semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup M&Ms (divided)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Cream peanut butter, butter, and sugars together in a stand mixer. Or use a bowl and hand mixer.
  • Add the eggs and vanilla to the mixing bowl and mix again.
  • Next, add the oats, flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt, combine thoroughly.
  • Add the chocolate chips and 3/4 cup of the M&M's to the dough. Stir with a spoon this time so the chocolate stays in whole pieces. Be sure to reserve 1/4 cup of the M&M's to press into the tops of the cookies once they are baked.
  • Form heaping tablespoons of dough into balls, place on parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Now flatten them a little bit.
  • Bake in the preheated 350 degrees F oven for 12 - 15 minutes.
  • Remove from oven, and press the rest of the M&M's into the tops of the cookies.
  • Use a spatula to slide the baked cookies onto a wire rack and allow them to cool completely.
  • Serve with a big old Monster cookie loving smile!
