Butterscotchy, peanut-buttery, chip-and-candy-loaded cookies that earn the name

Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup (8 oz) brown sugar
  • 1 cup (7 oz) granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp corn syrup
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1½ cups chunky peanut butter
  • 4½ cups rolled oats
  • ½ cup unbleached all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup chocolate chips
  • ¾ cup butterscotch chips
  • ¾ cup mini M&M’s

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease or line two baking sheets with parchment.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, sugars, vanilla, corn syrup, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Stir in the melted butter, then the peanut butter, oats, and flour, mixing until thoroughly combined. Stir in the chips and candy.
  4. Let the dough rest 30 minutes so the oats absorb some of the butter.
  5. Drop by ¼-cupfuls onto the prepared sheets and flatten slightly with your fingers.
  6. Bake 12 minutes, until light golden. Cool on a rack. Makes 26 large cookies.

  Chef's Tips

Let the dough rest 30 minutes before baking so the oats can absorb some of the butter. Regular M&M's work if you can't find the minis.
