Pawprints and Dog Biscuits

Sometimes life is tough, like when you leave pawprints all over the kitchen floor and have to clean up after yourself.

And sometimes you just need a good dog biscuit to make your day a bit brighter. (These are easy to make, and Ellie loves them.)

PeaMutt Butter Dog Biscuits

2 tablespoons corn oil
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 cup water
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 cups white flour

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Combine oil, peanut butter, and water. Add flour, one cup at a time, then knead into firm dough. Roll dough to 1/4" thickness and cut with cookie cutter. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Makes 2 1/2 dozen. [Note: My puppy-sized cookie cutter made a lot more than that!]
