Monster Cookies

Here is our favorite monster cookie recipe.  They are so good.  I made a batch for my track team to have after our meet last Tuesday.  Speaking of track, here are some pictures from the season...
Three of us are in track this year.

All John wanted to do in track was pole vaulting...

...but of course he has to do SOME running.

Thomas and I are distance runners... and distance runners only.

Now, back to the cookies.  These cookies are REALLY good.  It is almost like eating a granola bar.  This are soft, chewy, and thick.  But, better.

Monster Cookies

1 cup butter, softened
3 cups creamy peanut butter
1 1/2 tsp. corn syrup or honey
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
2 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
2 cups white sugar
6 whole eggs
4 tsp. baking soda
9 cups uncooked quick oats (I did part quick & part old fashion)
1 (9.4 oz.) package M&M candies
1 (12 oz.) package chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Cream butter, peanut butter, corn syrup/honey, vanilla, sugars, and eggs.
Stir in remaining ingredients.
Drop by tablespoons onto cookie sheets and flatten a little.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 - 12 minutes.  Do not overbake or cookies will not be soft.
