I had a great friend that made monster cookies. They had "everything" in them. And I think these are them. Oh thank you for sharing. Can't wait to get baking..... opps, time to go shopping.

I hope you enjoy them, Cheri. We absolutely LOVE these. I think using Crisco instead of butter makes these cookies more moist, which is why we like them so much. Better texture.

Thank you!! I hope everyone loves these as much as we do! :) They're also great for Halloween parties at the schools. I just use the Fall M & Ms.

I have made these for years. i use an ice cream scoop - not a teaspoon- hence the name - monster cookies. I only put 6 per baking sheet.

These sound really yummy!! How about using butter flavored crisco instead of regular crisco? This is what I have already on hand. Thanks!

Hi Jodie, I would imagine Butter Flavored Crisco would be fine since the original recipe called for butter. If you want to divide the recipe into a smaller "test" batch to be sure, I think that would be a good idea. I almost always replace butter with Crisco shortening as I feel the cookies are less apt to burn and be too thin. It also gives them great texture. Hope you have a chance to make them and please let me know how they turn out for you.

You just use oatmeal instead of flour. They are very yummy!! My mom said she didnt have enough oatmeal to make these one time so she did use 1/2 flour & 1/2 oatmeal. She said they were still good. I figure they are better for ya since they have all oatmeal! lol!
