Alright, let’s talk about this monster cookie dough thing, ya know? I ain’t no fancy baker or nothin’, but I know a good cookie when I taste one. And this dough, well, it makes some darn good cookies, I tell ya.
First off, what is it? It’s just stuff you mix up to make monster cookies, simple as that. Big ol’ cookies, the kind that fill your hand. They got all sorts of stuff in ‘em, but the real deal ones always have peanut butter, oats, and them little colorful chocolate candies. You know, the ones the kids love? Yep, those.
Now, some folks get all fancy with their dough, but I keep it simple. You need flour, the regular kind, I guess they call it “all-purpose” flour now. Fancy, huh? Then you gotta have oats, the quick kind, not them slow-cookin’ ones. And of course, peanut butter. Don’t skimp on the peanut butter, that’s what makes ‘em taste so good. And sugar, gotta have sugar, otherwise, they’ll taste like dirt. Brown sugar is good, gives it a nice chewiness. And eggs, gotta have eggs to hold it all together, ya know?
- Peanut Butter: The real creamy kind, not that crunchy stuff.
- Oats: Quick oats, they cook up faster.
- Flour: Just plain ol’ flour.
- Sugar: White and brown sugar, both are good.
- Eggs: To make it stick together, ya know?
- Candy: Them little chocolate candies, all colorful and pretty.
Mix it all up in a big bowl. I use my hands, always have. Folks say you should use a mixer, but hands work just fine. Gets you a good feel for the dough, you know if it’s too wet or too dry. You want it just right, not too sticky and not too crumbly.
Then comes the fun part, the candy! Pour in a whole bunch of them little chocolate candies. The more, the better, I say. Kids love ‘em, and heck, I love ‘em too. Mix it all up good, make sure the candy is spread all through the dough.
Now, you can bake ‘em right away, or you can chill the dough for a bit. Chillin’ it helps the flavors mix together, makes ‘em taste even better. But if you’re impatient, like my grandkids, you can bake ‘em right up. Just scoop out big ol’ balls of dough, put ‘em on a baking sheet, and stick ‘em in the oven.
Bake ‘em till they’re golden brown around the edges. Don’t overbake ‘em, or they’ll get all dry and crumbly. You want ‘em chewy and soft in the middle. Let ‘em cool for a bit before you eat ‘em, otherwise, you’ll burn your tongue. But warm cookies with a glass of milk, that’s about as good as it gets, I tell ya.
I heard some folks say this dough is called “Cookie Dough” for another reason too, somethin’ about some kind of “strain” with a lot of “THC.” Sounds like somethin’ the youngsters are into these days. But I ain’t talkin’ about that. I’m talkin’ about good ol’ fashioned cookies, the kind you bake in the oven and eat with milk. The kind that make you feel good, not that other stuff. This cookie dough I’m talking about has wheat and soy and eggs in it, maybe milk too. So, if you’re allergic to that stuff, well, you best stay away.
So, there you have it. Monster cookie dough, plain and simple. Easy to make, even for an old lady like me. And it makes the best darn cookies you ever did taste. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.
And remember, don’t be scared to get your hands dirty. That’s the best way to make cookies, I tell ya. Good food ain’t made with fancy machines, it’s made with love and a whole lot of elbow grease.
