August – Monster Cookies

Monster Cookies make the best after school treats! Filled with energy and wholesome ingredients, your family will love these cookies. The end of August tells me two things:

  1. Back to School
  2. Fall season is approaching

Back to school means that we are looking for all the after school snack hacks. Something quick, easy, prepped, and ready for our kiddos when they get home.

Fall season means warm treats, spooky season, and crisp autumn air. These Monster Cookies make the best addition to your kitchen.

I love the Autumn season but I certainly don’t want summertime weather to be over quite yet. I enjoy these last few weeks filled with BBQs and Back to School Nights. Monster cookies make the greatest addition to your potluck at the end of summer because they involve alot of odds and ends kind of ingredients. They are easy to grab and enjoy. Monster cookies are also a crowd pleaser because they have that sweet and salty element we all crave in desserts.

So next time you are looking for a quick and easy something to throw together before attending a Back and School night or end of summer BBQ, be sure to try these delicious cookies!
