Monster Cookies are everything you want in a cookie and more. These cookies are loaded with bright colorful chocolate candies, chocolate chips, peanut butter and oats. What more could you ask for in a cookie? When I made these last week, they instantly reminded me of the Las Vegas strip. With all the bright colors and everything going on in these cookies, they’re like the strip at night. Check out all our United States of Cookies recipes here. Recipe courtesy of My Kitchen Craze.

Ingredients

1/2 cup Butter softened
1/2 cup Brown Sugar packed
1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
3/4 cup Peanut Butter
2 Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 tsp Baking Soda
1-1/2 cups Organic Unbleached White All-Purpose Flour
1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
1 cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
3/4 cup Candy-Coated Milk Chocolate Pieces
1/2 cup Chocolate Chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Using your hand or stand mixer, add the butter and both sugars. Mix until light and fluffy, 3-5 minutes.
Add in peanut butter, eggs and vanilla extract. Mix until eggs are incorporated and everything is mixed well.
In a medium bowl, add the baking soda, flour, cinnamon and oats. Stir to mix ingredients together.
With your stand or hand mixer on a low speed, slowly add in the flour mixture and mix until just incorporated.
Stir in candy-coated milk chocolate pieces and chocolate chips. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto a cookie sheet.
Bake in preheated oven for 12 minutes. Place the cookie sheet on a hot pot and let sit for 3-5 minutes. Place cookies on a wire rack and let cool.
