Let’s be honest: Sugar cookies are hard to resist (Santa knows this). But when they’re doggie themed, it’s downright impossible to not scarf them down. Whip up a batch of your own tantalizing treats using dog-themed cookie cutters. Mix in cookies shaped like dogs, bones, and paws with seasonal and holiday shapes like Christmas trees and dreidels. Use icing colors to make fun designs.
