Monster Cookies

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 12 minutes
Yield: 36 cookies
Monster cookies are chewy and delicious! Peanut butter cookies with oats, chocolate chips, and M&Ms are hard to resist!

Equipment

  • Stand mixer or electric hand mixer

Ingredients 

  • ½ cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 egg room temperature
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp baking powder
  • 1 ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup plain M&Ms

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350° F. Line baking sheet pans with silicone baking mats or parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine unsalted butter, peanut butter, and brown sugar. Using an electric hand mixer, cream until the ingredients are smooth.
  • Add egg and vanilla extract and continue to mix until well combined.
  • Add in all-purpose flour, baking soda, cornstarch, salt, and baking powder. Mix until the dry ingredients are fully combined with the wet ingredients.
  • Add in oats, chocolate chips, and M&Ms. Fold in with a spatula until the ingredients are dispersed throughout the cookie dough.
  • Using a medium cookie scoop (1 ½ tbsp), portion the cookie dough and place onto the prepared baking trays allowing room in between the dough balls for spreading.
  • Bake for approximately 12 minutes until the cookies are set and slightly golden brown on the outside.
  • Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for 2-3 on the baking tray. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
