I"m no baker, but I make these cookies all the time because they are so easy, and my dog adores them. You could probably make them harder by leaving them in the oven longer.
I like to add some parmesan cheese but you dont' need to! 1/3 cup margarine 3 cup whole wheat flour 1/2 cup powder skim milk 1/4 tsp garlic powder 3/4 c water, room temp 1 egg beaten In a large bowl, cream margarine and flour. set aside In another bowl - dissolve skim milk in water, add garlic powder and whisk in egg Make well in center of flour mix. Stir in egg mixture. Blend well. Knead dough on floured surface until it's easy to work with. Roll out to 1/4" and 1/2 inch thickness (Thinner for harder cookies) Cut with cookie cutters Grease cookie sheet bake 50 min. at 325 |

Hard Treats
I've 3 big 'uns so I make these in bulk - you can adjust the recipe to suit:
4 cups whole wheat flour 6 cups instant oatmeal 1 tbsp baking powder 3 cups grated apples (food processor is the easiest way to grate) 3 tbsp molasses 10++ heaping tbsp of peanut butter (the "just peanuts" kind - no sugar added) 2 tbsp olive oil apple juice if needed Mix all your dry ingredients together thoroughly then start adding in your wet stuff. I usually end up mixing it up with my hands. Not being a baker I smell the dough - if it doesn't smell "peanut-y" enough for me - I throw in some more peanut butter or add the apple juice if I find it dry, more flour if it's too wet. I usually put it in the fridge to stiffen up for about ten minutes as it's easier to roll out. Lightly flour my dough surface & roll the dough out to about 1/4 inch or 1/2 inch (your preference), use a pizza cutter to cut treats into little or big squares/ rectangles and bake them in a pre-heated oven @ 350. My oven runs hot so I check mine at 15 minutes at which time I flip them over as best I can and bake them for another 5-10-15 minutes (it depends on how thick they are). My dawgs luuuuvv them. You can play with the ingredients - ie. I've substituted sweet potatoes for the apples, homemade chicken broth for the peanut butter and minced garlic for the molasses. |

My guy is little so I think that first recipe would work well for him. I don't need to make too many at once but I might try the PB recipe also and freeze some.
I have a question. I don't do dairy so my margarine, and my powdered milk and my parmesan cheese are all soy versions. Is that ok for a 7 pound shih tzu ? I wasn't sure if soy was an ok ingredient for him. I have all of the ingredients for those cookies in the house so I'd love to give them a whirl. |
