This is the most amazing recipe. I say that not because there is something special about the ingredients or the taste, no, I say it because it is so huge. In fact, I have halved the original recipe. Perhaps these were called Monster Cookies because it’s a monster, humongous batch. As it is, be prepared to have cookies cooling on every surface of your kitchen if you make these.
There is no flour in the recipe. If you use gluten free oatmeal and vanilla, you have a great gluten free cookie. Twelve dozen great gf cookies (and remember that’s half of the original recipe). You can play around with down sizing the recipe even more. It is most likely possible. You could also make the cookies bigger, though be sure to adjust the baking time and watch them carefully. Freeze or giveaway the extra.

3. Directions:
- If you have a large capacity stand mixer, cream the sugars, butter, eggs and vanilla.

- Stir in the chocolate.
- Drop by teaspoonfuls onto a greased or silpat lined cookie sheet and flatten.
