GOOD DOGGIE DOG COOKIES
Dogs have been a part of my family my entire life. We have always had at least one canine companion in our home, so I had to make sure they had a place in this book. These cookies are wonderfully cute and a bit over-the-top, with each cookie being made by three cookies! Feel free to mix up your cookies to change the colors to match your favorite pooch. Once you have your base cookie, use one sandwich cookie, divided into two parts, to serve as ears, and one vanilla wafer as part of the face. You could even add frosting to the ears if you want to create just the perfect color combo.
