Gluten Free Monster Cookies
*To freeze: freeze the cookie dough balls on a flat surface, like a baking sheet. Once frozen completely; I usually let them freeze overnight, transfer the frozen cookie dough balls to freezer safe ziploc bags. Recipe yields about 3 dozen cookies.
Servings: 3 dozen
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 1 1/4 cups packed light brown sugar
- 1 cup granulated sugar

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or nonstick baking mats.
- Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, beat together the eggs and sugars. Add the salt, vanilla extract, creamy peanut butter, and butter. Mix well. Stir in the chocolate candies, chocolate chips, raisins, (if using), baking soda, and the gluten free old fashioned rolled oats. Drop tablespoon sized cookie dough balls approximately 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.
