Ingredients
- 2 cups whole-wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 pinches ground cinnamon
- 1 cup chunky peanut butter
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup carob chips
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
In a large bowl, combine that flour, baking powder and cinnamon. Place the peanut butter in a medium bowl and microwave at high power to soften, 5 to 10 seconds. Whisk in the milk, then stir the mixture into the dry ingredients.
Shape the dough into a long, flattened log and place on a greased baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes; remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Slice the log crosswise on an angle into 1-inch-thick pieces. Set the slices on their sides (they should look like biscotti) and bake until crisp, 10 to 12 minutes more. Transfer to a rack to cool.
Melt the carob in a microwave or on the stovetop over low heat. Thin the melted carob with 1 tablespoon water, if needed. Using a spoon, drizzle the melted carob over the biscuits. Let cool completely. Store in an airtight container.

I read the reviews for this recipe before I finally decided to make it for my Lab-mix Lex. It seemed that the biggest complaint was the biscottis crumbling. After I followed the instructions, I could see that the dough was just not holding together too well, so I added an egg to the dough before baking the log. I used a foil lined baking sheet and was able to transfer the log to a cooling rack without it falling apart. Lastly, I used a serated bread knife to cut the biscottis after then had cooled. I could tell that they were very delicate, so I was just a little more careful with placing them back on the cookie sheet to bake longer. I did not use the carbo, as I couldn't find it in the grocery store, but I used white chocolate instead, which is still safe for our four-legged babies. I even sprinkled some with ground cinnnamon, and colored sugar crystals. Lex LOVED them! Thanks Rachel.

I found this recipe to be easy and had no problems with it. When it came time to cool it down I put the loaf on a cookie rack for ten mins then cut into slices and it seemed to be okay. I also used my hands to mix everything together instead of using a spoon. My three Siberian Huskies loved them. I made this for Christmas gifts for the dogs in our neighbourhood.
