Want a "Monsterious" Cookie Recipe?


This cookie recipe makes a LOT of cookies! I got the recipe from a Amish or Mennonite cookbook. I know I tried it for the first time for a VBS closing program Several year ago. - I would have been in my early teens when I first tried it. Even my brother Josiah has tried his hand at making them when he was going to be going on a baseball tournament about 2 years ago. :) I just made a batch again this last week for Josiah's wedding the 4th of July.
Here it is:

Monster Cookies
12 eggs
2 cups nuts, optional

4 cups white sugar
1 lb butter, no substitutes,softened

4 Cups Brown Sugar
3 lbs peanut butter

1/3 cup vanilla extract
1 Tablespoon corn syrup

8 teaspoons baking soda
18 cups rolled oats- I use Regular oats

1 lb M&M's
1 lb Chocolate chips


Beat the eggs, add the butter, sugars and vanilla and mix together. Add the corn syrup and peanut butter, mix well. Add the oats, nuts- if desired, baking soda,
M&M's and chocolate chips. Mix well. ( You are going to have to use a very large bowl to mix it all in!) Spoon onto lightly greased cookie sheets. - You can decide on how big you want them to be. :) Bake at 350* for about 11 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.

If you want to know the original directions for this recipe it is:
Mix in order given. Bake at 350*

I think you could cut this recipe down if you want to make them but not a lot of them! :) I haven't tried to yet but may some day. :)
