Get away from those cookies!!


I was in the middle of a photoshoot, and suddenly this passed through the viewfinder:

No Batman, you may not have any Chocolate-Stuffed Cookies.

Luckily I grabbed the cookies before Mr. naughty little puppy could snag a taste.

Naughty?

Me??

one ear dog

Yes, you.

Since adopting Batman, I’ve had to be much more careful about leaving photoshoots unattended, even for just a few seconds. Henry couldn’t care less about eating the props, but Batman will literally jump up onto the table!

(P.S. What the heck happened to his other ear??)

Help! My brother is crazy!

Tomorrow will be reader’s choice… cookie edition!

snickerdoodles   peanut butter cookies

What do you want to see?

Snickerdoodles, Oatmeal Raisin, or Peanut Butter Cookies?

No matter how you vote, I will eventually be posting all of the recipes (as well as many others). December is going to be cookie crazy around here.

And thanks for your kind words on yesterday’s post.

They really meant a lot to me. Also, quite a few people tried yesterday’s microwave chocolate cake with applesauce instead of oil and said they loved the results. So maybe I was wrong in cautioning against it. (I still think the oil version sounds better, but I tend not to like fat-free baked goods.)

    Awww, your puppies are adorable! My dog is pretty good about leaving people food alone, but every once in a while she “forgets” and I find her standing on the coffee table having a nibble of whatever is there.

    I would love to see a recipe for Oatmeal Raisin cookies! One of my favorites. 🙂

  2. Katie @ Peace Love & Oats says:

    Definitely snickerdoodles!! And that’s how our lab was growing up, we couldn’t leave anything on the counter or she’d eat it all! We eventually had to block the doors to the kitchen when someone was cooking!

    Oh puppies, I love them all! Batman is adorable and your pictures make me want to play with him! As for cookies, I vote for Snickerdoodles! I am excited for the cookie craziness! Are you going to do any soft molasses cookies? If you never need Christmas cookie ideas or someone to test/decorate some, my frosting tips and I are ready!

    I’m a sucker for anything peanut butter but my daughter loves snickerdoodles so we’d be thrilled with either!

    Those pics made my heart so happy :))

    Batman is soooo cute!! How funny that he tries to interfere with your photo shoots- he probably wants to be the object of attention! And mmm they all sound good, but my vote is for Snickerdoodles! They are my brother’s favorite and I owe him a baked good!

  8. Anna @ The Guiltless Life says:

    Batman is so photogenic! My cats are the same way with food though; you have to be so careful!

    Are you taking part in the Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap? I signed up a few weeks ago and think it sounds kind of fun – your cookies would be more than welcomed, I’m sure!

    1. Chocolate-Covered Katie says:

      I’ve never heard of it! What is it? Sounds fun!

    How’s the brilliant author of the Best Baking Blog 2011 doing? I think our dogs would get along very well. Cookie thieves, but cute cookie thieves.

    1. Chocolate-Covered Katie says:

      It’s hard to be mad at them, right? 😉

    My roommates dog will eat ANYTHING and everything no matter how out of reach it is. We cover cupcakes and practically lock them away and he still manages to find them. A whole can of frosting, an entire plate of button cookies (he left the pretzels and only ate the chocolate haha!)
