Chocolate peanut butter monster cookies filled with chocolate chips and colorful Halloween sprinkles, served with a glass of Prairie Farms Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Milk among festive bats and spiders.

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup (1 stick) Prairie Farms Unsalted Butter, softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup light brown sugar
  • ½ cup peanut butter creamy or crunchy
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons Prairie Farms Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 ½ cups old-fashioned oats
  • cup mini chocolate chips
  • ½ cup Halloween-themed brown and orange chocolate-covered candies
  • ½ cup chocolate peanut butter pieces
  • Halloween-themed sprinkles

Directions:

  • In bowl of stand mixer, combine softened butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar. Using paddle attachment, mix on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until light and creamy, scraping down sides as needed.
  • Add peanut butter and mix for about 1 minute, then add eggs one at a time, mixing until fully blended.
  • Add Prairie Farms Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Milk and vanilla extract, mix until combined.
  • Add flour, then sprinkle baking soda evenly over flour. Turn speed to low and mix until flour is just combined.
  • Add oats and stir for about 30 seconds, until combined. Stir in mini chocolate chips, chocolate-covered candies, and chocolate peanut butter pieces until evenly distributed throughout dough.
  • Line two large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Scoop out 3 tablespoons (about 1 ½ ounces) of dough per cookie, roll into a ball, and place about 1 ½ inches apart on prepared baking sheets.
  • Gently press 4-5 Halloween-themed sprinkles into top of each cookie. Chill cookies in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350º F. Bake cookies for 12-15 minutes, or until tops are golden brown and centers are slightly soft.
  • Let cookies cool on baking sheets for about 5 minutes, then transfer cookies to wire racks to finish cooling.
  • Serve cookies once they are cool enough to handle, or store in airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
