Ingredients:
Cookie:
3 Cups of All Purpose Flour
1/2 Cup of Cornmeal
1/2 Cup of Parmesan Cheese
1 Large Egg - Beaten
1 Cup of Low-Fat Milk
2 Tablespoons of Banana Baby Food

Icing (filling):
8 Tablespoons Low-Fat Strawberry Cream
Cheese
2 Tablespoons of Low-Fat Plain Yogurt
2 Tablespoons of Honey
2 or 3 Tablespoons of Flour ( thicken if
necessary)

Directions:
Cookies: In a medium bowl, combine the flour,
cornmeal and cheese (go ahead, use your
hands if necessary!). Next, add the remaining
ingredients (egg, milk and baby food). Once a
soft dough has formed, grab your rolling pin and
roll dough to desired thickness. Using a heart
shape cookie cutter, cut out shapes. Next,
using a smaller cookie cutter, cut out shapes in
half of the hearts that you have already made
(this will make a window - see picture). Be sure
to save the center cut-outs as they make cute
little cookies! Place all cookies on a cookie
sheet and bake at 350 degrees for twenty
minutes (or until golden brown). Allow to cool
completely.

Optional: Before cooking, I brushed egg whites
(that I dyed red with a few drops of food
coloring) onto the cookies.

Icing:
I got this dog friendly icing recipe from Party 4
Paws, it is wonderful! In a small bowl, combine
cream cheese, honey, yogurt and flour. Mix well!
Spread icing onto the heart shaped cookies that
DO NOT have the window cut-outs. Place cookie
WITH window on top to form a sandwich. If you
wish, you can get creative and pipe remaining
icing onto the smaller cut-outs (see picture).
Store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator.

Reminder: Cookies MUST BE 100% cooled
before icing.

Note: If your dog has allergies or does not digest
dairy products well, consult with your vet before
feeding!
