    2 tbsp
  • peanut butter

    34 grams

    2 tbsp

    ⅓ c
  • hot water

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, combine flour and the egg. Add the peanut butter, water, and honey, and stir until you have a stiff dough. The dough becomes very firm and sticky. You may need to use your hands, or the paddle attachment on your mixer.

  3. 3

    On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough about ½-inch thick and use a cookie cutter to make fun shapes. The treats barely spread and rise, so get creative with your shapes.

  4. 4

    Bake for 18-20 minutes, until golden. Once done, set aside to cool. (If you have smaller cookies, use less time, otherwise the bottom might burn.)

  5. 5

    To make the frosting, combine the peanut butter and honey in a microwavable bowl, and heat in the microwave in 15 second increments, stirring in between, until melted.

  6. 6

    Add the melted peanut butter mixture to the cornstarch and stir until just combined.

  7. 7

    Slowly add in the water 1 tablespoon at a time until you have reached the consistency that you would like. For a thinner frosting, add more water.

  8. 8

    Add the frosting to a piping bag and pipe designs on top of each dog treat.

  9. 9

    Frost the treats with the peanut butter/honey mixture for an even more tempting cookie.
