Dog Cookies
Recipe from Minty's Kitchen
Preparation time: 10 minutes plus 30 minutes resting time
Cooking time: 15 minutes
Makes around 15-18 cookies
- 125g/4ozs. unsalted butter, softened
- 40g/1.4ozs. icing or confectioners sugar, sifted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 125g/4ozs. potato starch
- 100g/3.5ozs. plain flour
- Milo cereal for ears
- Black sesame seeds for eyes
- Chocolate drops for noses
Step 1 - Beat the butter and sugar together for 3-5 minutes until pale and fluffy. Add the vanilla and then on the lowest speed add in the potato starch and plain flours until just combined. Wrap in cling film and rest for 30 minutes (I only rested mine for 15 minutes and some developed little cracks and I'm not sure if this is why).
Step 2 - Preheat oven to 170C/340F and line a baking tray with parchment. Roll the dough into walnut sized balls and lay an inch apart. Place the Milo cereal ears on top and then push in the chocolate drop nose. Gently add the black sesame for eyes. Bake for 15 minutes.
