Prep: 30 min. Bake: 25 min.
Yield: about 2-1/2 dozen (3-in. biscuits).

Treat your or a friends dog to these holiday bones. These biscuits are soft and with a hint of spices.—Megan and Natalie Stanson, Frazeysburg, Ohio

Ingredients:
• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 3 teaspoons ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
• 3/4 cup molasses
• 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons water
• 1/2 cup canola oil

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325°. In a large bowl, whisk water, molasses and oil until blended. In a small bowl, whisk remaining ingredients until blended; stir into flour mixture (dough will be stiff).

2. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/4-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 3-in. squirrel-shaped or other cookie cutter. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. (Any leftover scraps of dough can also be baked to make free-form bite-size biscuits.)

3. Bake 25-30 minutes or until set. Remove from pan to wire racks to cool.
