Monster Cookies

Monster Cookies are one of my children's favorite cookies, so when we had several of their cousins over Friday night for a husband's side of the family, "Cousin's Camp", we made Monster Cookies.  And the kids were monsters, because there weren't many cookies left!  (We didn't let them over due, but there were just 11 kids here!)

Monster Cookies

1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup plus, 2 tablespoons, firmly packed brown sugar
3 eggs
3/4 teaspoon light corn syrup
2 cup peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 1/2  cups regular oats, uncooked (I used quick oats)
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 - 6 ounce package milk chocolate chips
1 cup plain M & M's

Cream butter. Gradually add sugar, beating well. Add eggs, peanut butter, vanilla, and corn syrup.  Beat well. Add oats, baking soda, and salt stirring well. Stir in remaining ingredients.

Drop dough by 1/4 cupfuls, about 4 inches apart, onto lightly greased cookie sheets or on parchment lined sheets.  Bake at 350 for 12 - 15 minutes.  Centers of cookies will be slightly soft.  Cool slightly on cookie sheets.  Transfer to wire racks to cool completely.  Makes 2 1/2 dozen.
