As I've mentioned before, I am a member of the Etsy OWLS team (Off the Wall Ladies). The members take turns writing a spotlight blog post each month, and I did my first one today. You can go to the
team blog to see it. I decided to share the post here as well because I thought everyone might enjoy it. You should still go check out the
Etsy OWLS blog though, there are many talented artists on it! The idea of the spotlight post is to get members involved in sharing something on the blog that might be of interest to everyone. I decided to post about Cooper, my loveable, not so little anymore puppy. Since he is such a good dog, I decided the other day that he deserved some really good treats. I found a recipe in
Cooking the Three Dog Way by Mark Beckloff and Dan Dye, the owners of the
Three Dog Bakery (Cooper's favorite store, by the way!). You can check out the book and recipes on Amazon
here. I decided to make
Belly Rub Brownies because what dog wouldn't want these?! Here is the recipe:
Belly Rub Brownies
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons carob powder (I bought mine at the health food store)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup canola oil (I didn't have any, so I used vegetable oil instead)
3/4 cup honey
2 large eggs
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat an 8 x 8 inch baking pan with nonstick vegetable spray. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder and carob powder. In a smaller bowl, whisk honey and oil together. Add eggs one at a time, whisking after each. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and combine well. Spread the batter into the baking dish. Bake the brownies for 20-25 minutes or until set. Let cool to room temperature, then cut into squares.
Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days or wrap and freeze for up to 2 months.
Wet and dry ingredients
Ready for the oven! I tasted the batter, while Cooper got to lick the spoon, and we both agreed it was yummy even before baking!
Ready to eat!
Are those for me? Really? Is this a joke??
I will do ANYTHING you want...ANYTHING!!
Can I has just one more? PLEASE!!
As you can see, Cooper really enjoyed his treats! I have to say, he never performs his tricks as well as when I am holding one of these brownies! If you have a dog, I hope you try these yummy treats, and if you don't, surely there is a neighbor or friend with a dog who would love these! Enjoy!!
