Monster Cookies

12 eggs
2 lb. brown sugar (dark preferred)
4 c. white sugar
1 T vanilla
1 T syrup (any kind)
8 t Baking soda
1 lb. margarine or butter (stick, not spread)
3 lb. peanut butter
18 c. quick cooking oatmeal
12 oz. M&M’s
12 oz. chocolate chips

Directions:
· Mix all ingredients in order given.
· Drop by spoonfuls about 2” to 2 ½” apart onto ungreased cookie sheet.
· Bake at 350° for 12 minutes. Do not over bake.
· Let stand for one minute before removing from the cookie sheet.

Hints:
· You can actually use a mixer (don’t whip) up through adding about 1/3 of the oatmeal.
· The larger the eggs, the more oatmeal you may have to use.
· If the air is very humid, you may have to add more oatmeal.
· You know you have enough oatmeal when the mixture doesn’t really feel “moist.”
· Have margarine at room temperature, or microwave until soft, not melted.
· Use the cheapest peanut butter you can find (it has a little more oil and keeps the cookies from drying out too quickly.
· I find it helps to microwave the peanut butter a little so it kind of oozes out of the jar.
· Recipe halves and quarters very easily. Full recipe makes about 25 dozen cookies.


Other notes: This is a HUGE recipe! See what I marked above. It is also not easy to mix near the end.. beware if you have weak wrists

Lizz...have you ever MADE this recipe? I mean the WHOLE recipe? how long does it take to cook 300 cookies? *faints* What do you do with the mix in the meantime, because I imagine it's an all day kinda thing & it doesn't need to sit out. Put in fridge or freezer?

Even I would have trouble eating 25 dozen cookies. It would take me at least a week.

Just so you know, the large beater looking attachment for mixing paint and concret and such that goes on a cordless drill works great to mix all the way thru. :D

(no, we don't use it for chemical stuff, we use it for mixing Max's food)
