Well as I'd figured I would... I got carried away with my holiday baking. The plan was to make sweets for friends and family, but this year I've gone above and beyond... to the dogs specifically. I thought since my friends all adore their dogs as much as I love my Luna then they'd get a kick out of some home made dog treats too. So with a little peanut butter, flour and milk, I've made gormet dog treats. Luna has been my tester and she loves them, and since their all natural I even took a bite for myself, not bad!
So for all my neighbors who love their dogs... enjoy the recipe!

Peanut Butter Pup Treats
Makes: 3 cups of mini treats
Ingredients
* 1 cup Whole-wheat Flour
* 1/2 tbsp Baking Powder
* 1/2 cup Natural Peanut Butter
* 1/2 cup Low-fat Milk
Method
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Sift together flour and baking powder. In a seperate bowl, mix peanut butter and milk. Add the dry ingredients to the wet, being sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure even mixing.
4. Turn out dough on a lightly floured surface and knead. Roll out to 1/4-inch thickness and cut out shapes. Place on a greased baking sheet and bake 20 minutes or until lightly brown. Cool on a rack and store in an airtight container.

Pictured is my two day old kitchen floor, one quick sweep of the broom and evidence that Luna has lost enough hair to donate to balding dogs around the world.
Yuck.
