Welcome to Bailey's Kitchen

Bailey's Kitchen follows the experiences of one adventurous eater and her dog... and occasionally the adventures of her friends.

Bailey is my adorable, bratty, best friend of a Yorkie. She loves my kitchen and spends much of her time with me there attempting to convince me to feed her. As with the rest of our home the kitchen is hers, so this is Bailey's Kitchen. Here we will explore my endeavors into food (both cooking and eating it) focusing mainly on people food, but it wouldn't be Bailey's kitchen without the occasional dog recipe as well. Here is to learning to have champagne on a beer budget! I hope you enjoy!

Baileys Peanut Butter Cookies

I have one very spoiled dog. Part of her very spoiled-ness includes the fact that I make homemade dog treats.

Here is one of her favorite recipes:

2 cups of flour (i prefer wheat but any works)
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup milk
1 tsp. baking powder

preheat oven to 375.
Mix milk and peanut butter in a medium bowl until creamy.

Then add flour and baking powder
Dough should be sticky and stiff


At this point you have three choices, and it really comes down to how much time you want to spend.
1. you can roll pinches or spoonfuls of dough between your hands and drop them on an ungreased cookie sheet.
2. you can roll the dough flat and cut with cookie cutters (i prefer mini cutters as i have a small dog). make sure you keep extra flour on hand to keep the dough from sticking to the rolling pin and your work surface, this dough is VERY sticky!

3. you can freeze this dough for up to 3 months in the freezer. i often roll it into snakes and freeze it wrapped in saran wrap as it allows me to let it thaw and just slice pieces off and pop them right in the oven.


place your cookies at least 1/4 inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. cook for 20 min.



I often double or triple up this recipe.

  1. Thanks for the recipe. I'm going to try it for my in-laws' dogs. And then if they go over well, I will make them for our new dog (when we eventually adopt him/her). Yum, peanut butter!
