Aptly named because this recipe makes a big huge batch of big huge cookies: half a recipe is good for about 5 dozen. Perfect for sharing with the neighbors!
These are really very good.
Ingredients
4 C. sugar
2 C. (1 lb.) butter or margarine
2 lbs. (4 1/2 C.) brown sugar
3 lbs. crunchy peanut butter
1 dozen eggs (yes, you read that right)
1 T. vanilla
8 tsp. baking soda
18 C. oatmeal (a 2-lb. 10-oz box)
1 lb. M&M’s
1 lb. chocolate chips
Combine first 7 ingredients. Mix very well. Add last 3 ingredients; mix well. Make each cookie about the size of a golf ball; flatten slightly.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes.
*Ed. note: this dough keeps well in the refrigerator, and the cookies freeze beautifully. You may want to make half a batch on your first try.
I must try these. I seem to remember reused ice cream containers filled with these for long car trips.

That is the biggest cookie recipe I have ever seen!
THAT IS A HUGE COOKIE RECIPE.
I am quite positive that it would not mix in my KitchenAid mixer.
I may have to try that recipe quartered 😉
Are you trying to sabatage my diet of losing this baby weight? HA HA!They look so delicious, and it is snowing up here in St Cloud right now, good day to bake cookies!! I LOVE to bake from fall through Valentines day…not good for the diet, but fun for the kids!!
Your cookies were a hit at choir!!
Another reason to sing for the Lord!!

Margaret,
We made the monster cookies today and they were wonderful. We have a local coffee shop that makes monster cookies and I have tried to imitate their recipe. I’ve tried many recipes too! I think that I have found it! Thank you for sharing.
