Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup (115g) Unsalted Butter melted
  • 1 cup (200g) Light Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) Granulated Sugar
  • 3 Eggs large, room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cup (400g) Peanut Butter (smooth or chunky)
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 cup (120g) All-purpose Flour
  • 4 cups (400g) rolled oats
  • 1 cup (175g) Chocolate Chips (combination of milk, white, and semi-sweet chocolate chips)
  • 1 cup (190g) M&Ms & Reese's Pieces (peanut and regular)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350F (325F convection bake). Line your baking sheets (2) with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl with an electric mixer or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together sugars (brown and granulated) with melted butter.
  • Add eggs, one at a time. Stop and scrape down the bowl between each addition. Add peanut butter, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt until well incorporated.
  • In 2 additions, add flour and oats to your stand mixer. Beat until mixture resembles a thick cookie dough. Add your M&Ms and chocolate chips then beat one final time to incorporate.
  • Roll dough into 2 tbsp balls and place cookies onto baking sheet, spaced 2" apart. Flatten dough balls lightly into a disc shape.
  • Bake cookies at 350F for 15 min or until the edges are golden brown. Let cookies cool for 5 minutes on baking pan before transferring to rack to cool completely.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

Sofia’s Tips:
  • To measure flour correctly: Use a spoon to scoop flour into your measuring cup! 
  • Want Gluten-free?! Simply replace flour with additional rolled oats, approximately 1:1. 
  • The cookies will continue to crack as they cool!
  • After rolling into balls, these cookies can be put into a freezer safe bag and stored in the freezer for up to 6 months!! Perfect for your late night monster cookie snacking needs 🙂
