Cookie Recipes
These are really easy! You can mix the batter in your bread machine for some, then roll them out and cut in squares - they end up like little pillows. You can use different cookie cutters and do it the
right way, but you will finally realize that the only one noticing that they are in different shapes is YOU!!!! These recipes use only natural stuff, so hopefully they won't bother any allergies.
There are cookies that are cooked and those that are not. You choose!

APPLE/CINNAMON Dog Cookies
1 1/2 cups unbleached flour 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour 1/2 cup cornmeal 1/8 cup nonfat dry milk 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 1/2 cup smooth applesauce 1 egg, slightly beaten 1/2 to 3/4 cup water
(These are the instructions for making by hand, but if you mix in a bread maker, follow maker instructions)
1. Stir together the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add the applesauce and egg, and blend thoroughly. Then add the water gradually, stirring with a wooden
spoon. The dough should be very stiff; if not add a little more flour. Knead the dough with your hands to create a smooth texture. 2. Roll the dough 1/4 inch thick. Use a cookie cutter to cut the cookies (or cut in
squares). Place the cookies about 1/2 inch apart on lightly greased cookie sheets. 3. Bake in preheated oven 350 degrees for about 38 to 50 minutes. The cookies
should be lightly browned on the outside and should not be moist on the inside. Turn the oven off and let cookies stay inside for five hours or overnight to let
them harden. Makes four dozen 3"x1" cookies.
