How to Make Paula Deen's Monster Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 2 large eggs and 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar and ¾ cup (150g) packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, ½ cup (113g) creamy peanut butter, and ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, until well combined.
  4. Stir in 1 cup (200g) semi-sweet chocolate candies (chopped), 1 cup (170g) chocolate chips, ½ cup (60g) raisins (optional), 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 3 cups (340g) rolled oats.
  5. Drop by rounded tablespoons, about 2 inches apart, onto the prepared baking sheets.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown. Do not overbake!
  7. Let cookies cool on baking sheets for 3 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
  8. Once cool, store in an airtight container or resealable plastic bag for up to a week (if they last that long!).
