BIG NEWS!! After months and months of looking for a dog, my brother and his girlfriend FINALLY got a puppy. She is some sort of cocker spaniel mix and she’s pretty freaking adorable. I mean look…
That is ONE cute pup, am I right?! So, to welcome Nala to the family, I thought it was appropriate to make some celebration cookies! These cookies are a variation of my favorite Birthday Cakes Cookies, with the added crunch of white chocolate chips and Birthday Cake Teddy Grahams.
To be honest, I might even like them better than the Birthday Cake Cookies. For some reason, I just have this soft spot for Teddy Grahams…and they happen to be amazing in these cookies. Even though Nala is still only eating milk, I think she would approve of these cookies because her parents definitely do!
