Would you like a plate of cookies? Our sweet friends across the street brought over a plate of peanut butter cookies (thanks Abby!) a few weeks ago, and I quickly discovered that the pups absolutely LOVE peanut butter cookies.

If I had a “Ridiculously Easy Peasy” category here, this one would definitely fall under it. Because this recipe really is THAT ridiculously easy, stress free, AND, has the added bonus … Continue reading
