What Makes it a Monster Cookie?
It’s the assortment of all the great, gooey goodness of the mix-ins! For the best monster cookies, pick your own mix-ins like dried fruit, or nuts, baking chips or even your favorite M&M flavors! What about toffee bits or even nuts? Every monster cookie can be just as unique as the little (or big) monsters making them! This is definitely the world’s best monster cookie recipe because it’s made with oatmeal, which gives it a super chewy texture and helps hold all the goodies together!
To Bake Monster Cookies
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking pan (or a pizza pan) with parchment paper.
Make Ahead Cookies
At this point, they cookies can be placed on a pan and frozen before baking. Once frozen, place them in a freezer bag and let them defrost overnight in the fridge. Remove from the fridge 15 minutes before baking. Bake until the edges of the cookie are golden brown and the center is cooked. Remove from the oven, and let cool.
Optional Add-Ins
Nuts: any kind! Toast them in a saute pan about 5 minutes first to make them crunchier. M&M’s: plain, peanut, peanut butter, all sizes, shapes, and flavors! Dried Fruit: cranberries, raisins, blueberries, strawberries, flaked coconut, and even sliced & dried bananas! Extra Crunch: crushed potato chips, pretzels, whoppers Flavored Morsels: butterscotch, chocolate, caramel, or Heath
To Store Cookies
Monster cookies will last at least a week at room temperature if kept sealed in a zippered bag or sealed container. Keep your monster cookies cool so they stay firm. Chances are though, the best monster cookies don’t stay around too long!
