Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 cups light brown sugar very tightly packed
- ½ tsp table salt
- ½ tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cup creamy peanut butter see notes
- ½ cup butter softened to room temp
- 4 ½ cups old fashioned rolled oats
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 1 ½ cup M&M's
- ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs and sugar. Mix well to combine.
- Add salt, vanilla, peanut butter, and butter. Mix to incorporate.
- Stir in the baking soda and oats. Gently fold in M&M's and chocolate chips.
- Form a ball and wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Chill at least 1 hour or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 350F and live baking sheets with parchment or baking mats.
- Form dough balls about 1 TB in size, and place 2 inches apart on lined baking sheets. Flatten cookies somewhat, as they tend not to spread much.
- Bake 7-8 minutes. Take care not to over-bake. Cookies will set further upon cooling.

- Different brands of peanut butter contain varying amounts of sugar. If you use a less-sweet peanut butter, you'll need to add more sugar to the dough. I usually use Skippy Creamy Peanut Butter for best results.
- Be sure to use regular peanut butter that is already creamy and pre-stirred. Some natural peanut butters that have oil separation may not work as well.
- Be careful not to over-bake your cookies. They may seem slightly underdone at the 7-8 minute mark, but they will continue to set as they cool to a soft and chewy texture.
- Feel free to customize your monster cookies with additional mix-ins like chopped roasted nuts, white chocolate chips, or milk chocolate chips.
- If desired, press on additional M&M"s on top immediately after cookies come out of oven.
- These cookies are perfect for making ahead of time. The raw dough can be stored airtight in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or frozen airtight for up to a month.
