Recipe type: Cookie
Serves: 6 dozen
Ingredients
  • 1 cup margarine or butter, softened
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 cups brown sugar, lightly packed
  • 2½ cups peanut butter plus 2 tablespoons
  • 6 eggs
  • ½ tablespoon Karo syrup
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 4 teaspoons baking soda
  • 9 cups oatmeal, quick or old-fashioned
  • 1½ cups coconut, shredded
  • 1½ cups milk chocolate chips
  • 1½ cups M&Ms
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°.
  2. In a large stand mixer (or with a hand mixer) cream together the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, peanut butter, and Karo syrup until nice and creamy.
  3. Add in the eggs one at a time until completely mixed.
  4. Next, add the vanilla, oatmeal, and baking soda. Mix until well combined.
  5. Stir in the coconut, chocolate chips, and M&Ms.
  6. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or spray it with cooking spray and use a large scoop (about ¼ cup) to place cookies 2 inches apart. If you don't have a large cookie scoop you can use two spoons to place large ¼-cup-size portions of the dough on the cookie sheet. (If you prefer smaller cookies, that is fine, too. You can use a regular-sized cookie scoop if you prefer.
  7. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes. Let cookies cool on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
  8. Enjoy!
