Monster Cookies Recipe

Monster Cookies combine creamy peanut butter, oats, and two types of chocolate chips to create chewy, hearty cookies with rich texture and sweet bursts. Softened butter and sugars provide a tender crumb, while the addition of raisins is optional for extra chewiness and natural sweetness. Baking soda ensures a light rise for a soft but sturdy cookie.
