So...I'm not sure how I feel about the name of these cookies: Garbage Cookies?  For real?  Then I realized that these cookies actually come with many names.  Monster cookies, Everything cookies, Kitchen Cupboard Cookies.  Many names, and also many recipes to make the same cookie.  I found this one on www.iambaker.com.  I like that she starts out with a basic oatmeal cookie recipe and then makes it her own.
