Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- 1 stick butter take out of refrigerator and let sit on counter til soft (important – use butter not margarine)
- 1 1/2 cups peanut butter
- 1 1/6 cups brown sugar
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (1 1/2 cups if you don’t have m&m’s)
- 1 cup plain M&M’s (approx)
- 4 1/2 cups rolled oats
Cream butter with peanut butter. Add remaining ingredients in order, mix well. Add chocolate chips and m&m’s last once everything else is well mixed. It’s fun to put a couple extra M&M’s on each cookie after baking. Using a spoon drop onto cookie sheet, spacing about 2″ apart
Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 min. (should be slightly browned)
