Welcome to March!

We are here today to wish you a happy March 1st!  This means in a lot of places its getting to be spring like.  We will probably have another month of cold, maybe some snow, always a good ice storm, but it will eventually be on the way out for us too!

My Mom's friend Mary sent me a package of cookie mix from the King Arthur Flour people.  Today my Mom made these cookies for me and they are furry, furry, good!  They came with a bone shaped cookie cutter, but my Mom was in too big a hurry for that so she rolled out parts of the dough, and cut it into rectangles.  I can't have a whole bone cookie at once, I get smaller ones.

So today, she is gonna make me some Peanut Butter Cookies the same way.  Here is the recipe she is using:

Homemade Dog Treat Recipe


Peanut Butter Puppy Poppers

2 cups whole-wheat flour

1 tbsp. baking powder

1 cup peanut butter (chunky or smooth)

1 cup milk

Preheat oven to 375'F. In a bowl, combine flour and baking powder. In another bowl, mix peanut butter and milk, then add to dry ingredients and mix well. Place dough on a lightly floured surface and knead. Roll dough to 1/4 inch thickness and use a cookie cutter to cut out shapes. Bake for 20 minutes on a greased baking sheet until lightly brown. Cool on a rack, then store in an airtight container. ---

The person who made these cookies said they burn easily, so we have to watch them carefully when they bake, maybe turn the heat down a  little.  I dunno much about baking, but I know good eating and I think these will be yummy.

Want to come and have some with me?

Kisses,
