Bakery Style Monster Cookies
Hey there, fellow bakers! Ready to whip up some irresistible bakery-style Monster Cookies? Get ready to fill your home with the aroma of freshly baked goodness. Let's dive into this delightful recipe that's perfect for satisfying those sweet cravings!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup rolled oats or baby oatmeal
- 2 cups assorted chocolate chips/chunks, M&M minis, chopped nuts
- 1 tbsp pudding mix to make it extra soft
- 1 tbsp milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to a toasty 350°F.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the first six ingredients until they're nice and smooth.
- In another bowl, combine the second half of the ingredients. Once mixed, add them to the creamy mixture in the first bowl. Stir everything together until it forms a deliciously doughy consistency.
- In a separate container, mixed together, mini chocolate chips, chocolate chunks, M&Ms, etc. Get creative and choose your favorite toppings.
- Now, grab your trusty large cookie scoop and scoop out generous portions of dough onto your baking sheet. Roll into balls and lightly press into chocolate chip / mini M&M topping mix to your desired cookie thickness. All your toppings should cover the top of your cooking nicely.
- Pop those beauties into the preheated oven and bake them for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the bottom starts to look golden brown. I like to slightly under bake them so that they are soft and chewy.
- Once baked to perfection, let them cool for a few minutes before indulging.
- This recipe yields about 12 large scrumptious cookies or 24 small cookies, but feel free to adjust the portions to suit your cookie-loving crew.
