Mimi'S Monster Cookies

• 1 1/2 cups peanut butter
• 1/2 cup butter
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 3 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 3 teaspoons baking soda
• 4 1/2 cups quick-cooking oatmeal
• 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate bit
• 3/4 cup candy-coated chocolates (I use M&M's)
• 3/4 cup chopped walnuts (could use peanuts)

1. In a large bowl with mixer at medium speed, beat together the first 4 ingredients till light and fluffy.
2. Add eggs and vanilla; beat 2 minutes.
3. Blend in baking soda.
4. Stir in oats and remaining ingredients.
5. Dough will be very stiff and crumbly.
6. Drop dough by 1/3 cup measures, 4" apart on a ungreased baking sheet.
7. Flatten with a spatula to 3 1/2" cookies.
8. Bake in 350 oven for 12-14 minutes or till golden.
9. Remove and cool on racks.
10. NOTE:
11. If you need more than 22 cookies, you may use a 1/4 cup measure, but they will not be quite as huge as the other measure.
