I took these cookies out to the lake one day to go boating and they were very well received. They're kind of like the cross between a monster cookie and a chocolate chip cookie. A hint of nuttiness from the PB, a bit of chew from the oats, and of course a nice, hefty dose of chocolate. You really can't go wrong with this combination. A definite keeper!
Start with butter of course!
Add the sugar and cream until
nice and fluffy
Next is the PB, egg, and vanilla
Nice and creamy
Time for the dry ingredients
Mix until just combined
Finally, the oats!
And the chocolate!
Mix it all up
Onto a cookie sheet
Ready to bake
Bake until just golden on the edges
Cool them off on a wire rack
Grab a nice big glass of milk, and enjoy!

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream together the butter, white sugar and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the peanut butter, vanilla and egg until well blended.

Mix in the oats, chocolate chips, and M&M's until evenly distributed.

These cookies also look delicious! I don't think I've seen anything on your blog though, that doesn't look awesome! I'll have to try these ones another day. Today I made your chocolate chip cookies with the pudding in them, and substituted chocolate pudding for the vanilla! They are very good and Brian liked them too!
ReplyDeleteI miss you both at work, we'll have to catch up sometime about how school is going!
