Random Ramblings From The Granddogs and My 7 Random Things

Good Morning, Primmies ~ 

How is everyone doing today? I've been up all night and now the whole house is up. Mr. Glen Oaks and I are having coffee and Mr. Glen Oaks Junior is having Oreos and milk (and candy corn that he's sharing with me).

The kitties are awake now, too!

Oooh, granola bars (junior brought his own snacks)!

O.K., on to my post. You might remember that I had a pleasant surprise when we were asked to dog sit this weekend. I had a ball with the dogs and we made cheesy woofins together (woofins is my word for dog muffins):

"Come on NaNa, hurry up~put the camera away"

 

Lily and Opie adding the wheat flour and shredded cheese

"NaNa, you don't have to bake these, it's good just like this"

"I want to help too"

"Who asked the big dude to the party"

"What?"

Lily making woofins with NaNa

 A grand time was had by all. Everyone eventually made up.

"I just can't get rid of the big guy tonight..."

"He loves me, who could resist this face?Oh, you dog lovers probably want the recipe. It's been taste tested and doggy approved."

"If your dog is anything like mine, he loves cheese! This is an easy recipe for dog treats that is sure to please all of your pups".

Ingredients:

1 1/2 c. whole wheat flour

1 1/4 c. grated cheddar

1 stick softened butter or margarine

1 clove of garlic, crushed

1/4 c. milk (or as needed)

Pinch of salt

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees ***My changes here:(if you make woofins use a mini muffin pan and bake on 350 degrees for 20-22 minutes)***

Mix all of your ingredients, except for the milk, in a mixing bowl. To the mixture, add just enough of the milk to form a ball. Put the "cheese ball" into the fridge to chill for about a half an hour. Roll it out onto a lightly floured surface. Cut it into cute dog bone or hydrant shapes. Bake them for about 15 minutes or until firm.

Makes 24-36 biscuits (depending on your cookie cutter size)

***My change here:If making in mini muffin pan, bake until edges are browned and centers are firm, about 350 degrees for 20-22 minutes, all ovens are different so just watch them and adjust the time and/or temp.***

 I was recently awarded The Versatile Blogger award. As far as I'm concerned, every blogger I know should have this little award.
