We go through a lot of cookies in our home!  I love to bake them and we all love to eat them ;-)  Plus, I love having them on hand to give away! I usually default to making chocolate chip cookies, but I do love a good monster cookie!  I have posted my monster cookie recipe before, and I love that you can throw any treat into the dough and they taste yummy!  Today we added mini M & M's and chocolate chips...yummy!!
