Yesterday I mixed up some Monster Cookie batter, and put it in the fridge so I could bake it later. This morning I pulled it out and let it sit on the counter for a couple hours to get back to room temperature-mostly so that it would be easier to stir since it is already such a thick, crumbly batter. I added a small amount of oil and milk since it was so crumbly. I believe I must have added too much oatmeal-maybe next time I'll only use 2 1/2 cups instead of 3.
Anyhow, once it got to room temperature, I mixed in the oil and milk, and rolled the dough into about 1 inch balls. These cookies don't expand too much, so they can be placed relatively close on the cookie sheets. I baked them for 12 minutes, and they came out nicely. Again, still a little crumbly-now very convinced I should go down to less oatmeal next time, but very tasty. I think next time I may also use crunchy peanut butter rather than creamy, and possibly some pecans as well. This batch made about 70 or 80 cookies. Yum!
