Adventures in Baking - Monster Cookies

The cookie is guaranteed to make you feel like a kid during Halloween again. One part oatmeal, one part peanut butter and one part chocolate chip - it is the Frankenstein of cookies. Plus it's also dotted with everyone's favorite candy - M&Ms. I only used yellow, orange and brown ones to be festive!

1. Cream 1 1/2 sticks of unsalted butter with 1 1/2 cups of both light brown sugar and granulated sugar.

2. Add 5 eggs, 1/4 tsp light corn syrup, 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract and 2 cups creamy peanut butter. No one hates corn syrup more than me but don't leave out - it's integral for the cookie's structure.

3. Add the dry ingredients (1/2 cup flour, 1 tbs baking soda, pinch of salt and 5 3/4 cups rolled oats) in three batches until incorporated.

4. Fold in 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips and 1 cup M&Ms.

5. Bake at 375 for 15 minutes.
