Use an electric mixer to combine peanut butter, sugars, and butter. Mix well then add the eggs and vanilla. Next, mix in the quick oats and baking soda. Finally, stir in the chocolate chips and M&M's.
Use a cookie or ice cream scoop to drop the dough onto the baking pan. (To make them picture perfect add a few chocolate chips and M&Ms to the top of the scoops.)
Cookie scoops: Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Ice Cream Scoops: bake for 18-20 minutes. Be sure you do not overbake!!
Allow the cookies to cool for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to finish cooling off.
