Thanks Debbie – Hugs to your yorkie Divas!! Glad they enjoyed! Stay well!!
Can you use quick oats for this recipe?
I’m sure that would be fine!
Tina if I would make these cookies more on the chewy side, how long should I bake them?
Depending upon the size you make the cookies – it will vary – but start watching them at 10-12 minutes and remember they will firm up even more while cooling.
Thank you for telling people about xylitol. Many don’t realise it is in peanut butter and toxic to dogs
Take care Julie!
