Doggie Treats


This is the "little" man of our house - his name is Tito. I've been making doggie treats for him for several years and he never grows tired of them. You would think they were something new and great everytime he gets one. He gobbles them up. Because of Tito's size, I make them pretty small and even then he only gets a small part as his "treat". So they go a long way.

Tito's Favorite Doggie Treat
Ingredients
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup milk

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In bowl, combine flour and baking powder. In another bowl mix peanut butter and milk. Then add dry ingredients to wet ones and mix well. Place dough on a lightly floured surface and knead. Roll dough to 1/4" thickness and use a cookie cutter to cut out shapes. Bake for 20 minutes* on a greased baking sheet until lightly brown. Cool on rack. Caution -- these can burn easily!
Note - *if you make treats as small as I do - the time cuts back to around 13 minutes!


This is what the finished treat looks like.




This is the cookie cutter set I use. The littles four sided flower one on the far right is the one I use.
