Yummy Monster Cookies

Kasey told me about this delicious Monster cookie recipe off of Pinterest . She said she had made them and absolutely loved them! She warned me the recipe would make a lot. I thought I would give them a try. Boy, was Kasey right! It made around 75 medium sized cookies! This recipe would be good as gifts at Christmas or for school parties when large quantities are needed. Below is the recipe:

Ingredients

1 c	vegetable shortening
2 c	brown sugar, lightly packed
1 1/2 c	granulated sugar
3 c	creamy peanut butter
1 tsp	vanilla extract
6	eggs
4 tsp	baking soda
9 c	old-fashioned oats
2 c	m & ms
2 c	chocolate chips

Directions

1

 Preheat oven 375 degrees.
Cream together the shortening and both sugars.

2

 Stir in peanut butter and vanilla.

3

 Beat in eggs.

4

5

 Mix in M & Ms and chocolate chips.

6

 Using teaspoon, spoon mounded dough onto cookie sheet.
