A foodstuff treat maker includes a pair of opposed forming plates 24, 26 shiftably attached relative to one another and presenting respective forming surfaces. One of the forming surfaces defines a protrusion 80 and the other forming surface defines a cavity 66. The protrusion is at least partly received in the cavity in a forming position so that the pair of forming plates are mated with one another, with the mated forming surfaces cooperatively shaping foodstuff material applied thereto. The treat maker may be a counter-top baking appliance used to make biscuits for human consumption or for a pet. Also provided is a biscuit comprising a base wall 98 and an integrally-formed peripheral wall 100 that cooperatively define a receptacle opening 102. The cavity within the biscuit may be filled with a different foodstuff such as icing.
