Both of my sons have worked in the mall office around the corner from our Sur la Table…so I like to pop in and visit when they have a shift, and then cruise my favorite kitchen shop. Certainly a legitimate excuse to browse, don’t you think?
I spied a Labrador retriever cookie cutter a few weeks ago…and I couldn’t resist. That along with some holiday sprinkles got me out of there without needing to take out a loan. Such restraint! I knew I’d have to bake and decorate some holiday cookies dedicated to our beloved 12 year old pup, Lambeau.
Ingredients
- Recipe from my friend, Kaye
- 1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
- 3 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- Icing (I doubled to frost all the cookies)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon corn syrup
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
- Food coloring, optional
Instructions
- Cream butter, cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl till light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Add flour and baking powder and stir till combined. Put dough on a large piece of plastic wrap and flatten into a disk. Wrap well and chill for at least an hour.
- Preheat oven to 375º.
- On floured surface, roll out half of dough to about 1/8 inch thickness. Keep other half refrigerated till needed. Using cookie cutters of your choice, cut and place on parchment lined cookie sheet at least an inch apart. Bake 7-9 minutes till cookies start to brown on edges and are firm. Cool for a couple minutes, then remove to cooling rack.
- To make icing ( I doubled):
- Stir the milk into the powdered sugar. Add corn syrup, vanilla and food coloring. Add more corn syrup if consistency is too thick.

Your beloved companion I believe is living the good life with you and your family! Sweet of you to make these lovely cookies in his honor. I love the little holly around the neck-well done my friend!
One can’t help but look at these cookies and go, Awwww…. And that was exactly what I did! Awwww. I’m thinking Lambeau would love some dog cookies in his image too – it’ll be a case of dog eat dog! LOL.
Cuties; the puppies and the cookies! Cream cheese works wonders in sugar cookies. Happy Holidays!
sooooooooo cute..love ur idea..:)
Tasty Appetite
Oh my gosh – that puppy!!! These cookies are awesome, so adorable. Have a wonderful holiday!
Lambeau!!! Merry Christmas, dear doggy. Make sure your owners give you a super special Christmas meal otherwise go chew holes in their Christmas stockings. Muahahaha! (I am so gonna get a lump of coal this year). Good for the bbq
Oh my goodness! I want to snuggle with Lambeau while munching these gorgeous Lambeau-inspired cookies! I love the photo line up
Especially the little fato puppy one!
Lambeau is adorable, and so are the cookies. What a cute idea1 Will Lambeau get a dog cookie?
Merry Christmas!
Lizzy……..Lambeau is so adorable and cute in the pics. That’s so nice of you to bake something in honour for her….I like she’s sleeping and the cookies are beside her.
The recipe looks tasty because anything with cream cheese always makes it better.I’m going to name these cookies Lambeau’s Sugar Cookies in my file……love the holly around her neck.
Yipppiieeee!!!!!!! wonderful and amazing and say hi to real one. Love that last pic of both side by side.
George Clooney – I was like just holding myself from kissing him, aahhhh!!!! I simply adore him and when I showed my hubby the photo, he just smiled and now when there’s a movie with George Clooney, he will calling out for me to watch. Anway, this was my trip alone and surely will not be the last. Learned that travelling alone is so much fun at times.
OMG that is too adorable. A fitting tribute to Lambau. Did he get to eat a cookie lol?
Yeah… I did an “awww,” I hope Lambeau gets one treat. I’m saving this – I like the cream cheese in it. And as my family keeps eating my cookies faster than I can churn them out – I may be baking this on Saturday! Merry Christmas, Lizzy – to you and yours. May you have a joyful weekend.
I can hear the cookie dog barking. They are adorable. Real dogs are endearing.
delightful, my dear, and I love those decorative little Christmas trees too
And the doggie off course 
Aaawww, too cute! Happy Holidays!
Hey, did you see that the Packers finally lost this weekend? Poor, poor Packers (said with a very, very wide grin). I love you to death up until the moment that you put the name Lambeau on your blog. Then the Bear fan in me comes out. Why Lambeau?????
That being said, I do think the cookies are adorable and love the addition of cream cheese.
Merry Christmas!
OMG! I am in love! I am so being a copy cat, I need to find the dog cookie cutter, my goal for the day! The Butterball picture is adorable! Lambeau is beautful! I have one Lab that looks like a butterball and he sits in the kitchen when I cook, thats the only time he is good!
I also have a Golden Retriever who we were told was a Lab when we got her! lol I love my babies so much and I love yours too! Oh and the cookie recipe looks great! I’m going to make those tonight! I just need to find that cookie cutter! Thanks for sharing the pictures of your Lab, it put a big smile on my face! Have a wonderful day!
Liz, I am so smiling right now! Perfect post in every way. Cheers to Lambeau!
The labs cookies are adorable. We have a yellow lab so your cookies hold a special place for us. I really liked the holiday touch you added to the cookies.
Those are absolutely the most precious things I’ve ever seen – perfect and simple. What a sweet baby you have too
Merry Christmas to Lambeau.
Now Chloe is bugging me to make some Lambeau
cookies too. I am going to have to go to Sur La Table and get myself a lab cookie cutter for my stocking.
Lambeau cookies huh? What do ya think? Will I have the best of both worlds this year in the Superbowl? The Packers and the Texans!
I really need to invest in some cookie cutters
SO cute! This is the only time in my life I’ve wanted to eat a bunch of yellow labs – with milk
Iced Lambeau Sugar Cookies – i like the shape of it..
Lizzy, Such a cute doggie and the cookies are adorable! Love that you have a Sur la Table at your mall. I am so jealous! Wishing you and your family a wonderful, blessed Christmas!
How cute!
So fun! I think that’s a great excuse to browse your favorite kitchen store!
Oh, I have to get this cutter then. We just got a lab puppy and the kids would love the cookies!
Oh my goodness…so adorable! I would love to be able to find a cookie cutter like that.
Such sweet cookies to match a sweet pooch. So fun!!
Ohhhh that’s so cute, Lizzy!
Lambeau is such a perfect cookie inspiration!
How cute!! I’m always tempted to buy the dachshund cookie cutter in honor of my pup, but haven’t done it yet. Yours is very sweet!
I really admire your patience and dexterity! I would never be able to make such beauties.
The dog cookies are so cute and unique!
How precious and what a great idea Lizzy. Wish I could visit Sur la Table more often too.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Sam
Liz, the cookie cutter was so cute, and so is your little Butter Ball when he was a puppy!
Thanks, everyone!!! Lambeau will get something very special in her stocking
And Cathy, if you need to borrow my cookie cutter, it’s yours. These could easily be Chloe cookies!
What a sweet old dog–and I am always tempted by Sur La Table as well. Lovely cookies!
Oh my God these are so cute! I love the labrador cookie cutter, never saw that before, adorable! What a cute little pup he was, mine just turned 1 yesterday! He’s a little terror haha.

That lab cookie cutter is too cute. You did such a good job decorating the cookies as well. Wow! Lambeau is awesome… can you tell I’m hoping Santa brings me a puppy for Christmas (not just my kids). Actually maybe we’ll get a dog this spring…yay! Hope you have an awesome day baking tomorrow.
Cudos to you. I have no patience or talent for iced cookies.
Liz…having had two yellow labs myself, you’ve made me so happy and sad at the same time with the love for Lambeau,
Awe so cute!!!
The cookies are as cute as Lambeau! How cool that you live by a Sur La Table! I’ve only seen the on-line!
Your cookies are super cute!
Merry Christmas to you, your family and not forgetting your cookie inspiration! And happy 2012 too. Best wishes, Zoe.
Your Lambeau is beautiful and your decorated cookie is lovely.
Merry Christmas to you and your family. All the best in 2012.

I could just live at Sur la Table. My husband has to drag me out of the store or I’d spend all day there!
Lovely post!.
I wished to send you a warm wish of Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

I think Lambeau needs a jersey!
I would love to watch Lambeau if I lived closer to you. She has got to be the sweetest nicest Lab…ever!
The cookies are so adorable, hope she got to sample her “image of her likeness”…even if just a bite…lol!
Lucky you, Lizzy…so close to Sur La Table. Our store here is a 45 min. drive away!
Thanks, everyone!!! Merry Christmas to you all!!
Marygirl, so fun to see you posting…Lambeau does not have her own jersey! Shame on us…but she’s been known to wear Tom’s on occasion
Such a gorgeous dog and wonderful cookies!
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas Liz!
