Monster cookie recipe
We made a monstrous batch of monster cookies the other day. As we went, I kept tweaking the cookies with each new pan. At the end, I had the absolutely perfect monster cookie recipe (in my opinion).
The majority of monster cookie recipes you find online include no flour. Which is great if you can’t do gluten – but it doesn’t make as perfect of a cookie as it could.
Ingredients:
3 eggs
1 3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 17 ounce jar peanut butter (I used soy butter thanks to allergies)
1 stick of butter, softened
3/4 cup M&Ms
3/4 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup white raisins
2 tsps baking soda
3 1/2 cups quick oats
1 cup flour
2 tsps corn syrup
Mix your egg, butter and sugars together first. Then add peanut butter, vanilla, salt and baking powder. Then oats and flour. Then chocolate chips, M&Ms and raisins.
Scoop out cookies large. If your dough isn’t sticking together well (though it should with the above ingredients), add more peanut butter and/or corn syrup.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Take out before looking fully done (so it doesn’t get too dry from all of the oats). Put cookie pan in freezer to solidify the softer cookie. After 15 minutes, remove from the freezer and they will be good to serve.
Delicious!
