Well, that's what Rachael Ray calls it. Her dog is named Isaboo, and on one of her shows she made doggie biscottis. So today I decided to try to make them for my two sweet boys. :) Here's the recipe:
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 T. baking powder
2 sprinkles of cinnamon
1 cup of chunky peanut butter
1 cup of milk
carob chips
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Mix the dry ingredients; microwave the peanut butter for 10-15 seconds then wisk it together with the milk. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix together. Form it into a 1-inch high log on a greased baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Let it cool then cut into 1 wide strips and place on the flat side on the baking sheet; bake for 10 more minutes. Let cool on a cooling rack; drizzle with melted carob chips (you may need to thin it with some water). Voila! Doggie biscottis!
They turned out really cute - they look like little biscottis you'd get at the coffee shop, although you probably wouldn't want to eat them! I tried the carob chips and they are not very tasty! Nothing like chocolate! However, Chewie and Reuben love them, so that is all that matters. I really need to figure out how much it costs to make them - they might be cheaper than buying Beggin Strips! Reuben would be heartbroken if he had to live without Beggin Strips though...
Movie plug - we saw Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day this weekend, and it was simply wonderful! If you want to leave the theater with the warm fuzzies, go see this movie! It is funny and charming and actually sort of thought provoking. I enjoyed it anyway. :)
Well, one week until Spring Break! I can't believe how fast this semester is going - I'm not complaining. I can't wait for the warm weather to get here!
