I have lots of recipes and I enjoy trying new recipes but I only keep the ones my family approves of. I decided one day to put my recipes where they are more organized and I can access them anywhere. I don't have fun pictures to go along with the recipes and hopefully one day I will, but between dancing around our dog and 3 small children, I only have time to cook and then get the food on the table.

Many of my recipes have come from amazing friends and family that where nice enough to share, and I have given them props for it. So if you find something you like please just give props to the appropriate person.

Monster Cookies

This Recipe makes a ton, so I put the ingredients for a HALF batch, which still could feed an army.

7 dozen

Mix together:
1/2 lb. (1 cup) Butter/magarine, softened
1 lbs (2 Cups) White Sugar
1 lbs. (2 cups) Brown Sugar
6 Eggs, slightly beaten
1 ½ tsp. Vanilla
1 ½ tsp. Light Corn Syrup (Karo) or honey
4 tsp. Baking Soda
1 1/2 lbs. (2 ¾ cups) Peanut Butter

Now Add:
9 cups Oatmeal
1/2 Bag Chocolate Chips (unsweetened)
1/2 lb. M & M’s (plain)

Cream butter and sugars; beat in eggs one at a time. Stir in Vanilla and corn syrup. Add baking soda; mix well. Stir in Peanut Butter, oats, chips, M&M’s. Drop by spoonful, flatten a little, on cookie sheets and bake 12-14 minutes. Humidity makes these really sticky.

I bake these cookies on the air-bake kind of pans because they “Like” to burn on the bottom before their tops and centers are done. I also spray any cookie sheets with a mist of something like “PAM”. I make the dough balls about 2” in diameter and slightly flatten before baking. (If you don’t use air-bake pans, line your regular cookie sheets with aluminum foil, and still spray with a mist of a non-stick product like PAM.)
