Recipe: Hard, Round Teething Biscuits

I've never tried doing it, but I imagine that you could substitute the sugar for other sweeteners such as honey or stevia.  I had someone ask me for this recipe so I thought I would post it while I had it out.

Hard, Round Teething Biscuits

2 eggs
1 cup sugar (white or brown)
2 to 2 1/2 cups flour (white, whole wheat, or a combination)

Break eggs into a bowl and stir until creamy. Add sugar and continue to stir. Gradually add enough flour to make a stiff dough. Roll out between two sheets of lightly floured wax paper to about 3/4-inch thickness. Cut in round shapes. Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Let it stand overnight (10-12 hours). Bake at 325F until browned and hard. This will make about twelve durable and almost crumb-free teething biscuits.

I have made these for teething babies before. They are great! You also don't have to worry about the amount of sugar that goes into the cookies. Teething babies rarely get enough of the cookie into their belly for it to make a difference. Also, to make it easier for little fingers to hold the cookies, cut them out with a donut cutter!
