Today I am going to share a recipe and a tip that was new to me. I have been making monster cookies for a long time and have always used quick oatmeal. I went to make my cookies and only had 2 cups of quick. I googled to see if I could use old fashioned and was pleasantly surprised that I could! Not only that, but I like them much better. Ü This is a very good thing, because we eat lots of oatmeal, so I always have old fashioned around. Now I'm not sure that I even need to by quick again.
Here is a picture of my Valentine cookies. Some were eaten and the others I put in the freezer to save until Valentine's day. I used an ice cream scoop to make extra large cookies.
Monster Cookies
