A modern classic: monster cookies! This recipe is all over the internet; here it is in my words. They are easy and yummy and people go crazy over them. Also, the dough freezes very well. Freeze the dough balls then take one or two out at any time and bake. Ingredients:
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, slightly softened |
1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter |
1 cup brown sugar |
1/2 cup white sugar |
3 eggs |
1 tbsp vanilla |
1 tsp corn syrup |
2 tsp baking soda |
4 1/2 cups old fashioned oatmeal |
1 cup m&m's or more - i used 10 oz. big m&ms |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350° F and prepare a couple large cookie sheets with parchment paper.
2. Cream butter, peanut butter, and sugars.
3. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
4. Beat in corn syrup and baking soda, then oatmeal and M&M's.
5. Drop onto cookie sheets with an ice cream scoop and flatten slightly.
6. Bake at 350°F for about 12 minutes or until done. Do not overbake!
7. Remove from oven when slightly golden. Let cool on the sheets for a few minutes until they have firmed up enough to remove to wire racks.
8. Freezing: Roll unbaked dough into balls and freeze on a cookie sheet. When completely frozen, remove dough balls to freezer bags. These will stay good for several months, depending on how sturdy your bags are. Bake straight from the freezer; they will only need an extra few minutes in the oven.
