We have the most wonderful readers! There are days when I get photos in my email from readers who love their prizes, and then there are days when I score a field goal with a Super Bowl hat! Check this out. One fan sent along a Super Bowl XLV (last year's event) hat just because they knew we would love it. And we do!
Tanner and Oliver also love noshing, a favorite activity of many a Super Bowl fan. Last year I had a bit more time on my hands, so I whipped up some cookies just for Game Day. I'd like to share that recipe again, as it is still one of my boys' favorites. They freeze well, so we were able to eat them all the way through Summer. Enjoy:

These treats are quite hard and crunchy, and will be fine in your treat jar for a couple of weeks. Dog Treat Kitchen tells us that you can cook for a shorter time to create a softer biscuit, but be sure to refrigerate afterwards. The harder treats freeze quite well for up to 6 months. Note that the frosting decoration was removed before I allowed Tanner and Oliver to snack. It fun to decorate them just for the event. :)
