Did you buy those just in case I need mashed potatoes and dry milk for the holiday meals? This simple recipe will help you use up those ingredients and get them out of your pantry. Your pets will be thrilled. This is so yummo for them!

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • 1 box of Dry Mashed Potatoes 7.2 Oz approx.
  • 1 cup dry milk
  • 1 cup flour (try Rye, Soy,wheat or any kind of flour)
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 1/2 cup water

Step1
Preheat oven to 375.
Step2
Mix all ingredients together well. Dough is ready when you can touch it and it does not stick to you. If dough is still sticky add a handful of the flour you used until it is not.
Step3
Roll out dough and cut with your favorite cookie cutter. A cup or glass works great as well. Or go for a free form cookie - Just pinch off dough in table spoon amount and place on the cookie sheet just as you would if it were cut into a shape.
Step4
Treats will not flatten or rise. Placing treats close is acceptable in this recipe.
Step5
Bake for 45 minutes or until the treat releases from the pan by itself. You will know this by tilting the pan to the side just a bit and you see a treat move.
Step6
Let treats cool completely. Store in the refrigerator because this treat just like any other fresh product will spoil when left out. Treats will last longer in the frig.

Tips & Warnings

  • Get rid of those veggies while your at it. Dice up carrots, green beans, or broccoli. Any kind of fresh left over veggie will work in this recipe.
  • Let the kids in on this recipe.
  • Dogs should not have onions, tomatoes, or chocolate. Your pet may have other items that it should not have be mindful of this.

on 5/3/2008 This sounds so easy. I bet you could throw in a jar of organic baby food carrots to add some veggies for them.

on 1/26/2008 I make all of my dog's food homemade, so these will be a great way to get some extra natural potassium in. Thanks!
