Horse Cookies

Options
So, my boyfriends daughter made these tonight - yes, for a horse - and I started noticing all the ingredients and kept thinking to myself, "Man, I bet these are good!!" And boy am I right!! Not a super-sweet snack, but just enough! Would be great with a glass of milk!!

    Ahahaha, this made me laugh, I just pictured someone sitting in the kitchen trying to sneak a bite of a horse cookie without anyone noticing.

    Reminds me of the time when I was a kid, and a boy pinned me down and shoved a dog biscuit in my mouth! :noway:

    Guessing these taste MUCH better than that did! :laugh:

    :smile: It would be funny if we made them and we all lost loads of weight eating them and including them into our calorie goals.

    We made them pretty small, but you could make bigger cookies and adjust the numbers accordingly.

    I'm thinking they could use some cinnamon. Maybe replace the oil with some mashed banana? And then you'd have a bangin' good cookie!!
