MONSTER BREAKFAST COOKIES

Monster Breakfast Cookies image

These are a perfect treat when on the go, or first thing in the morning before a run/walk, or in the middle of the night while nursing a hungry infant! Walnuts are a great add (try 1/2 cup raisins and 1/2 cup walnuts), but they do make the cookies a bite drier. You can use white flour or a mixture of white and whole-wheat.

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease 4 baking sheets.
