Thick and Chewy

You know those cookies I posted a pic of last week? Well, here is the recipe... go, make, enjoy!

Thick and Chewy Cookies

1 cup butter
4 cups peanut butter (16 tbsp = 1 cup)
2 cups brown sugar
2 cups granulated sugar
2 tsp vanilla
6 eggs
8 cups oatmeal
2 cups flour
4 tsp baking soda
2 cups chocolate chips (and/or M&M's)
optional: 1/2 cup nuts

Cream butter, peanut butter, vanilla and sugars. Add eggs. Stir in oatmeal, soda, flour, chips/m&Ms and nuts. Drop by spoonful onto cookie sheet. Bake at 350' for 10-12 minutes. I let sit about 10 minutes on pan and then place onto counter and let cool before putting away. This helps them to "stay" together more after baking.

This recipe makes a TON of cookies. You are more than welcome to half it but they freeze well too and taste great out of the freezer also!

Enjoy and have a blessed week! -K
