About this recipe
From the Recipe Stack

A Note for Dog Owners
These cookies may be shared with dogs as occasional treats, provided every ingredient is dog-safe. Use plain pumpkin purée, not pumpkin pie filling, and check that the peanut butter contains no xylitol (birch sugar), which is extremely toxic to dogs. Avoid flavored or sweetened variations and account for the treats in the dog's daily food intake.
