What Are Monster Cookies

Monster cookies are the type of cookie that has all the fix-ins. They are my favorite type of cookie!

These cookies are a cross between an oatmeal chocolate chip cookie and a peanut butter cookie. It is best of both worlds! This cookie has oats, peanut butter, mini m&m's and mini chocolate chips.

Steps To Make Cookie Dough

Since this monster cookie dough needs to be chilled before you use it, you need to make it first. Here is the steps to make it.

• Step 1: Dry ingredients- In a mixing bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. The cornstarch helps make these a chewy cookie.
• Step 2: Wet ingredients- First, beat the butter and both sugars together. It needs to be light and fluffy before you add the peanut butter, vanilla, and egg.
• Step 3: Add dry ingredients into the wet- Add in the dry ingredients and mix until combined. Since there is peanut butter, it will be a wet dough.
• Step 4: Add the fillings- Now, add the oats, mini m&m's and mini chocolate chips. If you don't have mini versions, you can use the regular version.
• Step 5: Chill- This dough has to be chilled for 40 minutes before using to firm the dough.

How To Make The Brownie Batter

These brownies are based off my Better Than Boxed Brownies. I just reduced the quantity to prevent a huge brownie.

• Beat eggs and sugar- Beat these using a mixer with a whisk attachment. Beat for a whole 5 minutes to get the eggs light and fluffy. The air in the eggs is how to brownies will rise since there is no leavening agent.
• Add butter, oil, and vanilla- Add all three in, and mix on low to not knock out the air from the eggs.
• Mix in the dry ingredients- Pour it all in to bowl and use a rubber spatula to fold it in. This takes a few minutes, but keep going!
• Add in chocolate chips- The best part! My favorite brownies are the type with chocolate chips. There are two types to balance the chocolate flavor.

Prebaking The Brownie Layer

First, grab a 9X9 pan and spray with baking nonstick spray. Then, place parchment paper on the bottom and up the sides to easily remove the brownies later.

Now, these brownies normally need a long time to bake in the oven. Since the cookies don't need as long in the oven the brownies bake a little first, before adding in the cookie dough. We don't want to over cook the cookie layer, while the brownie layer is still too gooey!

After the brownies bake for 15 minutes, then grab the cookie dough by the handful and flatten it into a disc. Do this until all of the dough is used.

Decorating Tip

If you want more color and texture on top of the cookie layer, I sprinkle a lot of the mini m&m's and mini chocolate chips on top. I have tried to add extra topping after it baked, but the cookie was too set and the topping just fell off. If you want the topping, add it before you bake!

Cooling The Brownies

Now this is important, don't dig into these brownies until they are completely cool! I know it is hard to be patient, but the chocolate flavor taste very dull when still warm. Room temperature brownies, have a much stronger rich chocolate flavor.

Another reason is the brownies still cook as it cool. If you were to cut into the tray, it would be pretty gooey.

If you are dying for some brownies, pop the tray into the freezer for 25 minutes to cool it down faster. That is what I do, when I need the brownies now!

Cutting The Perfect Brownie

Once the monster cookie fudgy brownies are room temperature, take them out of the pan and place on a cutting board. Then, take a sharp knife and cut the brownies into 16 squares. After each cut, wipe the knife clean. This will give you the perfect brownie square!

Storing These Cookie Brownies

The monster cookie fudgy brownies should be stored at room temperature in an air tight container. They will last up to 5 days.
