Calories 733kcal
Ingredients
- 3 eggs large
- 1 1/2 cups dark brown sugar firmly packed
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon corn syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
- 4 1/2 cups quick-cooking oatmeal
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 cup M & M candies
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF (177ºC).
- In an extra large mixing bowl, add eggs 3) and both sugars (1 1/2 cups brown + 1 cup sugar) and combine well. Mix in vanilla (1 tablespoon), corn syrup (1 teaspoon), salt (1/2 teaspoon), baking soda (2 teaspoons), butter (1/2 cup), and peanut butter (1 1/2 cups), and combine well. Mix in oats (4 1/2 cups). Add chocolate chips (1 cup), butterscotch chips (1 cup), and M&M's (1 cup). Mix until evenly distributed.
- Using a large cookie scoop, put on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 12-15 minutes
Notes
- Don’t Overbake. Pull them when the centers look just slightly underdone. They’ll firm up as they cool, and that’s how you keep them soft.
- Want Thicker Cookies? Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes before baking. Chilling reduces spread and creates even puffier cookies.
- Use Light-Colored Baking Sheets. Dark pans can cause over-browning on the bottoms before the centers finish baking.
- Customize the “Monster”. Add chopped peanuts for crunch, white chocolate chips for sweetness, or swap butterscotch for extra chocolate.
