Equipment

  • Extra large mixing bowl
  • measuring spoons
  • measuring cups
  • cookie sheet
  • mixing spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound brown sugar
  • 2 Cups granulated sugar
  • 1 Tbsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/2 Tbsp. Light Corn Syrup
  • 1/2 pound butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 pounds peanut butter ( one 8 oz jar plus 1/2 cup)
  • 4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 9 Cups Quick Oats or Old Fashioned Oats
  • 1/2 pound Chocolate Chips
  • 1/2 pound mini m&m's

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • In an extra large mixing bowl, combine brown sugar, granulated sugar and butter. Add vanilla extract, corn syrup and peanut butter. Mix until all is combined.
  • Add baking soda, salt and oats (one cup at a time is best) mixing well. Next add chocolate chips and mini m&m's, stirring to combine.
  • Using a cookie scoop or Tablespoon, place dough onto the cookie sheet with 1-2 inches between each cookie and bake at 350 degrees for 9-12 minutes. Allow to cool completely before removing from the pan as these are very soft cookies. Be careful to not over bake!
  • Note: If you want to freeze some of the dough, simply place spoonfuls onto a 12x12 of parchment paper and form into a cookie log. Wrap in parchment paper and place into a gallon size freezer bag. Freeze until ready to bake. Thaw dough and slice or scoop into cookies and bake as directed above.
