Gluten-free monster cookies filled with peanut butter, oats, chocolate chips, and M&Ms for a chewy and delicious treat.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup (255g) creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup (100g) packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3 cups (100g) quick-cooking oats
  • 1 cup M&Ms
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F, and prepare two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • Combine the peanut butter, butter, and sugars: In a large bowl or stand mixer, mix together the peanut butter, butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium speed for 2 minutes, scraping the sides halfway through.
  • Stop the mixer and incorporate the eggs and vanilla. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes until a thick paste forms.
  • Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides. Beat in the baking soda and salt for 30 seconds. Mix in the oats on low speed until fully combined. Reserve 2 tablespoons each of M&Ms and chocolate chips, then fold the rest into the mixture using a spatula until thoroughly combined.
  • Scoop the dough into 1 1/2-inch balls using a medium cookie scoop or spoon, placing them 2 inches apart on the baking sheets. Roll each ball to make them uniform and press M&Ms and chocolate chips on top. Bake for 12-16 minutes until edges are golden, rotating pans halfway through.
  • Allow the freshly baked cookies to rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before gently moving them to a wire rack to cool. Serve these delightful treats warm or at room temperature. Store in an airtight container once fully cooled, they remain fresh for 3 to 5 days. For longer preservation, freeze them for up to 2 months.
