Fancy Dog Cookies

These fancy dog treats are relatively easy to make and have lots of good things in them. Valentine's Day is a little under a month away, why not start plotting a gift basket full of these cookies for your favorite canine friend? Here is the recipe: 

Ingredients
1/3 c. rolled oats
2 1/3 c. unbleached flour
1/4 c. pumpkin seeds
1 Tbsp. flax seeds
4 carrots
1 apple
1/2 c. peanut butter
1 tsp Better Than Bouillion Vegetable base
1 Tbsp honey
1 egg
4 pieces of bacon (cooked)
1 Tbsp bacon grease

Step 1:
Using your food processor with the grating blade, grate the carrots and apples. Transfer them to a medium sized bowl.
Step 2:
Swap out the grating blade on your processor for the standard blade. Add the rolled oats, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds and bacon to your processor. Grind them up. Add them to the carrot apple mixture.
Step 3:
Add the remaining ingredients to the medium bowl and mix. Once everything mixed thoroughly, transfer to a floured surface. Roll out your dough. Cut out shapes with a cookie cutter and place on a greased cookie sheet to bake at 350 for about 15 minutes. When the cookies are done, you have a choice to make: For a softer cookie, take them out of the oven. For a crunchier cookie, leave the cookies in the oven, but turn it off. Let them cool down together.

 FROSTING!
Once every thing is  cooled, you can frost your cookies! To make the frosting you will need:

2 Tbsp cornstarch
2 tsp water
1 tsp honey
3-5 drops food coloring

 Mix all these ingredients together in a bowl. You won't be able to mix with a spoon, so be prepared to get your fingers messy. It will have that strange consistency cornstarch gets when mixed with a bit of water- Not a liquid, but not a solid. Once mixed, you are going to pick up a "chunk" of your frosting and place it on top of the cookie. From there, it will "ooze" over the cookie.

DONE! Add sprinkles if you wish!
