Someone teach me how to not bake cookies right before supper!! I always seem to do this and then I “taste test” about five of them as soon as they’re done and I’m not hungry for supper😂 Oh well. Worth it. When I was a kid, my mom made us monster cookies all the time. Well, she still does! It was and I think it will always be my absolute favorite thing she makes. There really is nothing better than a fresh monster cookie right from the oven! From my experience, the only chocolate that monster cookies usually have is m&ms and chocolate chips. This time, I felt a strong urge to add Reese’s peanut butter cups and I’m soooo glad I did. It did not disappoint!

The perfect addition to these cookies!
