Keeping my Championship week treat baking going with stuffed monster cookie#.  These have peanu butter, oats, milk chocolate chips and are stuffed with a) Reese’s pb cups

b) double stuff oreos or c) golden oreos. 

The oats make them healthy, right?

Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount.  I also recommend chilling the individual doughs for an hour or two.

football friday week 14- Easy Monster cookies stuffed with Reese’s pumpkins

Monster cookies stuffed with Reese’s pumpkins

I can NOT believe it is week 14 already!  Wow.  Football season goes so fast.  One day it’s the preseason opener and in no time at all, the regular season is almost over.   I needed something quick, so I used the Betty Crocker monster cookies recipe and stuffed them with Reese’s pumpkins.  Another day I will post a complete homemade version. 

I am glad the Bills night games are done.  Those are a killer to stay up for and get up early the next morning!  But last week, with Josh’s hat trick of touchdowns (throwing, running and receiving), it was worth it.

These are easy.  I do chill the dough to keep them from spreading too much.  Remember to preheat your oven  before baking

  • Ingredients list
  • 1 peanut butter cookie mix
  • 1 chocolate chip cookie mix
  • 11/2 cups oats (old fashioned or instant)
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups m&ms
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips
  • Peanut butter cups

Directions- In a bowl, combine cookies mixes and oats.  Blend in butter and eggs (I used a gand mixer).   Fold in chips and m&ms.  Scoop out 2 tbs dough and evenly form around Reese’s pumpkins.   Chill a few hours.  Preheat oven to 375 degrees.   Line a cookie sheet with nonstick baking liners.  Stagger cookies on sheet.  Bake 10 to 12 minutes (no longer).  Cool completely.   Store in covered container.

Reese’s Egg filled Monster cookies

Uncategorized Leave a comment

I saw the super XL size of Reese’s eggs at BJ’s and felt I HAD to buy them.  I think because they’re the world’s best candy.  I know Reese’s has the classic cup, and all the holiday shaped versions,  but the eggs are the beat.

This recipe is super easy.  The cookies, though, come out huge!

  • Ingredients list
  • 1 pkg chocolate chip cookie mix
  • 1 peanut butter cookie mix
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 2 cups M&Ms
  • 1 1/2 cups quick cook oats (not prepared)
  • Reese’s eggs!!

Direction – preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.  In a bowl, combine cookie mixes.  Blend in butter and eggs.  Fold in oats, then M&Ms.  Scoop out 4 tbs dough and form around Reese’s eggs.  Stagger on prepared sheets.  Bake 12 to 13 minutes, no longer.  Cool completely.   Store in covered container.

I haven’t made stuffed cookies in a while, so I figure I would make these monster cookies and stuff them with Reese’s peanut butter cups (and also hershey kisses bc I ran out of Reese’s). You don’t need to stuff these cookies, they are just fine on their own. But I like to step things up a notch, so I stuffed ’em

Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount. Also, chill the individual cookie dough to prevent spreading. And preheat the oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes so it cycles to the right temp.

  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar

  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tbs cornstarch
  • 2 cups old fashioned oats
  • 2 cups m&ms
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips
  • Reeses pb cups or other candy,unwrapped

Directions – cream butter, peanut butter, sugar and brown sugar. Add eggs and vanilla. Blend in flour, cornstarch, and baking soda. Mix in oats. Fold in chips and m&ms. Scoop out 1/4 cup dough. Divide in half. Slightly flatten one half.

Place 1 Reese’s on top.

Place other flattened half of dough on top.

Cover Reese’s completley.

Chill a few hours or overnight. Preheat oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes before baking. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Stagger cookies on sheet.
