More homemade treats

[Sophiedoodle]

ooh these sound good Sophie! Any particular recipe, or just add cheddar & rosemary to a batter?

I will post a picture of the recipe tomorrow - been doing a 12 hour shift today so didn’t see this until now!

No rush at all, sleep tight

Am I the only person who just buys bisky bones on my food shop as dog treats

Poor Stanley.. yet again he’s deprived!

I've tried making treats a few times but Ella will chose the store bought ones over the homemade so I just don't bother.

@HAH here’s the recipe. We just use normal flour x

I haven’t actually made them yet so no idea how good they’ll be, but the dogs won’t be fussy

Yum, thanks Sophie x

Oh! Thank you @Sophiedoodle I actually have all those ingredients too!

 

[Sophiedoodle]

Treats made! Just need to separate them once cooled down. I see there is a big clump of cheese in the middle

 

[HAH]

Brilliant, thanks @Sophiedoodle ! Tasty too

Very posh.
They are very tasty though!

Wow, that silicone mould thing looks like a great idea.

The ‘roll out and cut into shapes’ method is what I’ve usually done. I’ve always spaced out the individual bits before baking but looking at Sophie’s ones I’m not going to bother with that any more.

Made Fred and Annie some Peanut butter treats this morning. They did a taste test and loved them. Two jars full and some in the freezer.
Well it makes a change from making cakes for us.

I bought a new silicone mould this week, round rather than pyramid shaped like @Candy and @HAH have. It's so much better! I went for the tiniest ones, so each tray does over 400 treats, I'm using them for streaming at the moment. One chicken carcass, two eggs, some flour, made about 1,200! I seemed to get the batter just right this time too, nothing stuck.
How long do you leave yours to dry out? Mine were completely cold when I put them in the jar, but they've gone from quite crispy to soft now. Doesn't matter, as I'll have used them all up within a week, but wonder if they should be left In a cool oven to dry out longer?

 

[HAH]

Hooray, nice work @Natalie - they look great I haven’t made any of these ones for a while as I made a batch that went soft and then a bit mouldy in the jar. I need to experiment - the first batch were perfect, I think I left them in the oven a bit longer? Ideally I’m looking for biscuit texture rather than cookie softness, sounds similar to your plan. I’ll make some more and record my methods!

I just freeze mine and use them straight from the freezer

Me too

Me too

Good idea! I kept mine in a jar in the fridge but they still ended up a bit soft and mouldy as @HAH said. Freezer next time then.
