The Best Monster Cookie Recipe

Start by whisking together the room temperature eggs, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a large bowl. Once the eggs and sugars have been combined, stir in salt, vanilla extract, peanut butter, and room temperature butter. Mix this until the peanut butter and butter have been fully incorporated. Now, stir in the M&Ms, chocolate chips, baking soda, and oats.

I’d recommend chilling the dough now, for at least 30 minutes, but if you don’t have time, feel free to skip the chilling step.

Preheat your oven to 350 F.

Scoop your cookie dough (I used a 1.5 tablespoon sized scoop) onto a prepared baking sheet (I lined it with a silicone mat) and leave a couple inches in between each scoop. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove pan from the oven and let cookies set for 3 minutes.

Remove them from the baking sheet and place the cookies on a cooling rack. Serve immediately or store in airtight containers!
