Turned out great. Gave a lot of these away. Certainly made a lot of cookies.

These are very good. I believe I over mixed my butter/sugar mixture so they were rather flat, but still very delicious.

These are a very good cookie! I dislike margarine so used all butter in these. They came out chewy and the taste was good. We will more than likely make again.

YUM!!! These are awesome cookies... big and chewy and delicious. I did use peanut butter in place of the margarine and it added a great flavor. I also doubled the vanilla. Nobody can turn these cookies down! Thanks!

i've made these a few times. They always turn out flat. Flavor is just ok. I have a much better monster cookie recipe from browneyedbaker!!!. Those are the BEST cookies i have EVER had. Thick and chewy, just how you want a cookie to be.

I have made these several times, as they are very popular with my kids. I always cut the recipe in half, and still get plenty of cookies. I also only use butter. These are very easy, and come out great every time!

These are not monster cookies. I would call them oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. And, I'm not impressed. Mine turned out crunchy and blah. I should have stuck with my go to recipe instead of trying something new.

I quadruple checked the recipe to make sure I wasn't missing anything...because the dough was so dry. I've never seen anything like it...it was like raking through sand. That's even after adding peanut butter to the recipe which should help hold the mix together. When baking, they didn't spread like cookies should...couldn't even tell that they were baking unless I checked the bottom. I followed the recipe exactly except for the peanut butter, which should have been an aide instead of a hinder...had to add a few tablespoons of water to get a better consistency. Everyone loved the taste though...I'm still teetering in the middle over this recipe.

Super Yummy! I was looking for a monster cookie recipe that didn't contain peanut butter so my daughter could take them to school in her lunch. I halfed the recipe and used butter in place of the margarine. I made the cookies large and baked them for 12 minutes @ 350.
