Monster Cookies are loaded with a variety of tasty ingredients like chocolate chips, M&M's, peanut butter, and nuts, making them a truly indulgent treat for cookie lovers of all ages.
Ingredients: 1 cup unsalted butter, softened. 1 cup granulated sugar. 1 cup brown sugar, packed. 2 large eggs. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour. 1 teaspoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/2 cup rolled oats. 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter. 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips. 1 cup M&M's. 1/2 cup chopped nuts e.g., walnuts or pecans.
Instructions: Preheat your oven to 350F 175C. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in the rolled oats, creamy peanut butter, chocolate chips, M&M's, and chopped nuts. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. Enjoy these delicious Monster Cookies with a glass of milk or store them in an airtight container for later!
