This is the perfect Xmas present for dog lovers of all ages. Make a batch of these scrumptious dog biscuits. Gift wrap them along with a copy of my picture book, This is the Dog. Your friends and their canines will love you forever!
Dog Biscuits + This is the Dog = a perfect present
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 ° F (180 ° C).
In a bowl, add 2 tsp. of dry yeast to 1/2 cup lukewarm water. Let rise.
Add the following and mix in with the above
1 1/2 cups cooled chicken broth (can be purchased, home-made, or made by dissolving 2 bouillon cubes in boiling water)
2 tablespoons dry parsley
3 tablespoons honey
1 egg.
Gradually mix in 5-6 cups whole wheat flour until a stiff dough is formed.
Transfer to a floured surface and knead until smooth (about 3-5 minutes). Shape the dough into a ball, and roll to 1/4-inch (6 mm) thick. Using small bone-shaped cookie cutters, make biscuits!
Transfer to ungreased baking sheets, spacing them about 1/4 inch (6 mm) apart. Gather up the scraps, roll out again, and cut additional biscuits.
Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and turn over. Bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until lightly browned on both sides. Let cool overnight.
Makes several dozen small bones that keep and freeze well.
Note: if you want to hang some on your Xmas tree, poke a hole in one end of each biscuit before baking. (hole will shrink while baking). Let it cool, and then thread it with a narrow ribbon.
Happy Holidays. Sheryl
