Kitti's cookies from the SU meeting
Paula Deen's Monster
Cookies
I think they
are called Monster because this recipe makes so
many!
from
Christmas with Paula Deen available at the local library
:-)
6
eggs
One 1 pound
package light brown sugar (2 1/2 cups packed)
2 cups
granulated sugar
1/2 tsp
salt
1/2 tsp
vanilla
One 24 oz jar
creamy peanut butter
1 cup (2
sticks) butter, softened
8 oz M &
Ms
8 oz choc.
chips (2/3 of a 12 oz bag)
1/2 cup
raisins - OPTIONAL - I did not opt in on them
4 tsp baking
soda
9 cups quick
cooking oatmeal - not instant
1. Preheat
oven to 350. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper or nonstick
baking mats.
2. In a VERY
LARGE mixing bowl, combine eggs and sugars. Mix well. Add the
salt, vanilla, peanut butter, and butter. Mix well. Stir in
the M & Ms, chocolate chips, raisins (if using), baking soda and
oatmeal (you may need to use your hands at some point with
this).
3. Drop by
Tablespoonfuls, 2 inches apart, onto the prepared cookies sheets.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Do not overbake. Let stand for about
3 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool. When cool,
store in large resealable plastic bags.
NOTE - I used
the medium Pampered Chef scoop to make mine and got over 10 dozen
cookies. Paula's recipe says that is makes 6 dozen cookies.
Oh, and the dough is super yummy too!
