From my Mama (Debra Ball):
The reason we have the Monster Cookies Recipe that we so love is that we had a friend in Los Alamos (1986) that couldn't eat any form of gluten. She had these cookies and we loved them and of course, asked for the recipe. We have added many pounds to our bodies from these cookies:
2 sticks of butter
1 1/2 pounds peanut butter
2 1/4 packed cups of brown sugar
2 cups sugar
6 eggs
1/2 Tablespoon vanilla
4 teaspoons baking soda
9 cups oatmeal
package of chocolate chips
2 cup M&M's
Mix. Bake at 350* for 12 minutes. Makes about 90 cookies
