  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat butter and peanut butter with an electric mixer for 30 seconds.
  • Add sugars, baking powder, and soda; beat until combined.
  • Beat in eggs and vanilla.
  • Stir in oats, then nuts, then candy pieces.
  • Drop dough by 1/4-cup measure 4" apart onto ungreased cookie sheets without sides (I can only fit 5 on each cookie sheet). Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until edges are light golden brown.
  • Remove from oven and let stand for 1 minute before transferring to a wire rack to cool.

  1. When I made these I left out the 1/2 cup of sugar and used chocolate chips instead of the M&Ms. I also chilled the dough and rolled them into 1" balls, reducing the bake time to 8 minutes. Fantastic cookies!! By far the best oatmeal cookie that I've ever eaten!! Thanks for my new favorite cookie recipe.
