CATS BUTTER RECIPES

Steps:

• I don’t know if you can buy powdered apple(just get the freeze dried ones if you don’t want to take this long), but it’s pretty easy to make, just time consuming. I peeled and cored 2 apples cut them into 1/4 inch thick slivers and put them in my dehydrator for 12-15 hours, then tossed them in the food processor until they were a nice powder. You can coat them in lemon juice if you don’t want them to turn brown, but they taste the same either way. You can sun dry them too, but it takes A LOT longer. You can also set them on a rack in the oven at 125-150degrees for a couple hours(not sure how long because I don’t do it that way but I’ve heard 6-8) and keep checking them until they’re dried out to where they brake like dry, stale bread. A comment was left about using fruit crisps. I’ve actually tried it before and it did indeed work, but it seemed to clump up a little. Not that big of a deal and still very good, so if you can find them at a store near you, or just order them online, it’s definitly a quick option to drying your own. Whip up the butter. Add honey and whip again. Add cinnamon and whip yet again Add the powdered apple a little at a time(1/2 tbsp roughly) whipping in between each addition. Check the flavor after adding half of the powdered apple since apple’s differ in size and aren’t exact measurements and just mix to taste.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars together until light and fluffy. Add the egg, vanilla and peanut butter and beat until combined. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until just combined. Roll dough into oblong balls. Make a criss-cross pattern by pressing into the dough with the tines of a fork, and then pinch slightly in the center to create an indent. Place cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden. Let cool 10 minutes before removing from pan. Make filling: In a large bowl, cream together peanut butter and butter until light and fluffy. Add powdered sugar, vanilla and salt and beat until evenly combined. Spread an even layer of frosting on one cookie and sandwich another on top. Repeat until all cookies are filled. Serve.
