Just curious, has anyone tried the Tillamook, "Cookie Monster" icecream? Tastes just like these cookies! Super delicious.

I made these cookies for a family reunion in Mississippi. Now I am sending the recipe to family members in Indiana and Florida. Everyone raved about these cookies. I found that it is best to transfer the baked cookie from the cookie sheet to a plate instead of a wired rack to cool. I used 1 stick of butter and 1/2 cup of shortening instead of 1 cup of shortening which resulted in a buttery flavor.

I never write reviews, and joined this network solely to write this one! This is really the best cookie recipe ever. They are so good I have to get them out of my house or I will eat them all!!! Thank you for sharing the recipe!

AMAZING! I cut the white sugar by 1/4 cup and omitted all the brown sugar as my husband is diabetic and they turned out SO GOOD!

Great cookie recipe, made them as written. They are a peanut butter cookie & oatmeal chocolate chip all rolled into one cookie. Thank you.
