Peachy Keen Oatmeal Cookies
Just received this recipe from a newsletter I get--haven't tried it but it sounds good and anything with mostly oatmeal (and not so much flour) usually always gets my attention. It sounds pretty healthy too because of the molasses for the sweetener and is only 1 tablespoon for the whole recipe of 24 cookies! I personally would note in the Tips and Techniques under the Decorating Idea--adding a thin peach slice as I figure more peach flavor. A 1/4 cup of diced peaches for 24 cookies doesn't sound too 'flavorful' to me.
Chewy Dog Cookie Recipe - Peachy Keen Oatmeal Homemade Dog Cookies
Here are some ideas that weren't on the same page for the cookies above. You can do this with some other cookie recipes as well.
Dog Treat Baking Tips
This months tip is for the Peach & Oatmeal dog cookie recipe above. If you are short on time, you'll love this quick tip. Instead of scooping out individual cookies, turn the dog treat dough into traditional ice box cookies.
What are ice box cookies, you ask?
They are not a single type or flavor of cookie, it's more of a method. The ice box cookie method is a quick and easy way of turning cookie dough into a slice-able log for easy baking.
For the Peach & Oatmeal cookies you will want to follow all the steps through step #8. Then lay out a large sheet of wax paper. Dump the dough onto the paper. Start to roll and shape a log approximately 1 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
Once you have an even log, twist the ends of the wax paper like a piece of candy. Store the log in your freezer in a labeled gallon size freezer bag for up to 2 months.
If you want to bake the same day, leave the log in the freezer for a minimum of an hour. If you want to bake several days later, remove the log and let it come to room temperature while you preheat your oven. When your oven is ready, slice 1/2 inch thick slices of cookies and lay on a prepared baking sheet. Bake as long as the recipe instructs.
A fun tip from Martha Stewart is to store your dough, once in a log shape, in an empty paper towel tube to keep it's shape while it freezes.
Once you know your dog loves a particular dog treat recipe, you can bake a double or triple batch and freeze in logs for ice box cookies any time your dog gets a desire for homemade dog cookies.
