Monster Cookies

When we got married, I learned early on that Taigen was a cookie monster. Sherry (my ever-wonderful mother in law), shared a recipe with me for Monster cookies. They are out of this world. Tonight we are having friends over for dessert and I made a batch of these to go with ice cream. I thought I would share the recipe with you since I know I have a few readers who love the peanut butter and chocolate combination.

You'll need:
6 eggs
2 cups sugar
4 tsp. soda
1 1/2 lbs peanut butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 lb. margarine
1 box brown sugar
Mix these together and add:
3 tsp. cinnamon
9 cups quick oatmeal
M&M's

Use large cookie scoop and place on a cookie sheet. Bake @ 350 degrees for 12 minutes. I would tell you how many it makes, but I have yet to determine this accurately since I have a husband who loves to eat the dough (and now two munchkins too!). It makes a bunch. I usually fill up two gallon size Ziplocks and freeze those and still have some left on a plate to serve. Enjoy and thank my mother in law!
