Monster Cookies

My sister-in-law gave us a bag of these cookies a week or two ago and they were gone in about two days.  We loved them so much that I got the recipe from her.  Fast forward to this Tuesday.  I made a batch of them.  As of today, between us and my in-laws, we have ate all but about 15-20 of them.  If you're adding this up, four adults and two kids have ate almost 3 dozen of these large sized cookies.  That could mean two things:  either 1, we REALLY love our sweets or 2, this recipe is amazing (I think the truth is both of the above).
The next time I make these, I'm going to cut the time down by a minute or two.  I don't know if it's the recipe or our stove (we just got a new one and I'm not sure how accurate the temp in it is.)  The cookies didn't burn or anything, they're just a little bit crunchy for my taste.  If anyone tries this recipe, please tell me if it's the recipe that cooks for too long, or if it's the oven that cooks too warm.

Monster Cookies


Mix in the following order:
3 eggs
1 1/8 cups brown sugar
1 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 teaspoon light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoon baking soda
1 stick butter
1 1/2 cups peanut butter (I used creamy)

Mix well and bake at 350 for ten minutes.  Makes 4 dozen.  Freezes well.  Tastes great warmed in the microwave for 10 seconds.
