A thick and chewy jumbo everything cookie chock full of all kinds of goodies from your pantry. It’s everything you want in a cookie and then some.
It’s been a little while since I’ve posted a cookie recipe to the blog. But today marks the beginning of daylight savings {cue the happy dance!} and I thought we all deserved a little celebration. You know how much I love a party. Any excuse to frost a cake, bake a batch of brownies or scoop some cookie dough and I’m in! I’ll also look for any excuse to make a Target run. I love everything about Target and I’m guilty of leaving every time with about $200 worth of merchandise that is NOT on my shopping list. I may be one of Target’s biggest fans but I’m pretty sure I’m not alone in my affection for the store with the big red dot. I only wish I had hours of uninterrupted time to leisurely stroll the aisles at my own pace. Instead, when I walk through the sliding doors of my favorite megastore I look more like a contestant on a game show, in a race to throw everything and anything into my cart in record time and be the first to cross the finish line.
Such is life as a mom with a to-do list a mile long. On the plus side, I know exactly where everything is.
Last week while I was stocking up on the usual lunchbox snacks and printer paper I made a quick detour where all the pretty pastel Easter goodies are on grand display. You know, the same area where they put out all the Halloween stuff in August. Don’t even get me started on that nonsense. I had one thing on my mind and it wasn’t chocolate covered Easter bunnies or even mini boxes of jelly beans. I was looking for the Easter M & M’s. I grabbed a few bags with one thing on my baker brain…everything-but-the-kitchen-sink cookies. Also known as MONSTER cookies because they are big. And fat. And chock full of everything in your pantry.
I don’t know who can resist a thick, chewy, peanut butter cookie loaded with two kinds of chocolate chips, oats and M&M candies. It’s everything I want in a cookie and then some. These colorful cookies are just the sweet treat kids of all ages love. And with only ten more days of winter, a batch of pretty pastel studded cookies make the perfect dessert to usher in springtime.
I’m not kidding around when I say that these cookies are monster cookies. Ginormous is more like it. We use an extra large cookie scoop to portion out the dough and they bake up extra thick with little spreading. This makes for a chewy, soft center which will keep your sweet tooth begging for just one more bite. Before you know it, the cookie jar is empty and you’ll be off to Target to buy more M&M’s for a second batch. Pro tip: buy two bags the first time.
I hope your Sunday is filled with a super fun Target run and a warm from the oven batch of these Jumbo Everything Cookies.

April 9, 2020 at 6:06 pmYum!! I had been craving some Easter sweets and I happened to have everything I needed to make this (I used peanut butter Mm eggs). They came together super quick. I used a 1/4 cup measuring spoon and just dumped them out. I got about 16 cookies since I overfilled the cup each time. We chilled them for about 6 hours and couldn’t wait to break into them for dessert before dinner. I could have baked them a bit longer but they are soft and full of goodness with every bite! And look gorgeous to boot.
