My family has a rich camp history. Camp Courage, a camp for physically challenged youth and adults in Minnesota, is especially near and dear to our hearts. My brother, sister-in-law, cousin, and various neighbors all worked there one or several summers. I was a camp counselor at Camp Courage after my freshman and sophomore years of college.
One of Camp Courage's dining hall specialities was its Monster Cookies. Delicious! Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
Monster Cookies
2 2/3 cups crunchy peanut butter
1 cup butter
2 1/4 cups packed brown sugar
2 cups sugar
6 eggs beaten
1 1/2 tsp corn syrup
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
8 - 10 cups rolled oats
4 tsp baking soda
1 (8 oz) package M&Ms
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Heat oven to 350. Combine peanut butter, brown sugar, sugar in a VERY large bowl. Stir in eggs, corn syrup, and vanilla. Combine oats and soda in a separate bowl; stir in butter mixture. Stir in candy and chocolate chips. Drop by heaping tablespoons onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 8 - 10 minutes until just brown. Do not over bake. Makes 6 -8 dozen.
