The Best Monster Cookies

These monster cookies are the most frequently made cookie at our house. They are seriously so thick, chewy, with slightly crunchy edges and a super soft baked center thanks to the secret ingredient; cornstarch.

If you’ve never added cornstarch to cookies then you have been missing out my friends. It’s only a small amount but it makes a HUGE difference in the texture of the cookie. Soft baked inside with a slightly chewy outside. Perfection ♥

It’s funny that it has taken me so long to post this recipe seeing that THE most POPULAR recipe on the blog are these {no flour} monster cookie bars. Which are equally delicious, make an entire cookie sheet (perfect for a crowd), and they freeze so well.

There is just something about the combination of chocolate, peanut butter, oats, and m&m’s that appeals to all ages! No matter how I try I can never say no to one of these monster cookies.
