True Monster Cookie Bars made by Pamela Overmeyer

This week I came across a great idea from a wonderful young woman.  I found this very creative and loved the idea for kiddos.  Whether baking for your own family or kids at parties, these are sure to be a hit!  I have heard of monster cookie bars before, but never seen them done with great colors.  What kiddo doesn’t want to eat a delicious bar with bright, crazy colors.  I have to do this the next time my girls have friends spend the night.  The creator, Pamela, is the mommy to two beautiful little girls.  A big thank you to her for sharing this recipe!

Cream together 1.5 stick butter, 1 Cup sugar, 1 Cup Brown Sugar (or you could use 2 Cups Brown Sugar). Add 1.5 (not precise measurement) Cup PB. Add 3 room temp Eggs, then 2 tsp Baking Soda. Add 4.5 cups Oatmeal 1 cup at a time. The green mix has mini Reese Pieces and chopped Reese cups and the Purple mix has Milk choc chips and White Chips (each addition is 1 bag or less to your liking) Bake in a 9×13 greased cake pan for 15-20 minutes and DONT over bake, best gooey and soft. They may seem “not done” but will set up over night. The picture is a double batch…Green food Coloring in one bowl and Purple food coloring in the other ENJOY!!
