Beefy Dog Treats

 

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast

1/4 cup warm water (110 to 115 degrees)

1 teaspoon beef bouillon granules

2 Tablespoons boiling water

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup nonfat dry milk powder

1 cup whole wheat flour

1 cup cooked long grain rice

1 envelope unflavored gelatin

1 jar (4 ounces) vegetable beef dinner baby food

1 egg

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. In another small bowl, dissolve bouillon in boiling water. In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, milk powder, wheat flour, rice and gelatin. Stir in the baby food, egg, oil, yeast mixture and bouillon mixture until combined; knead until mixture forms a ball. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; roll to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut with a floured 2-inch bone-shaped cookie cutter. Place 1 inch apart on ungreased baking sheets.

Bake at 300 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until set. Remove to wire racks to cool. Let stand for 24 hours or until hardened. Store in an airtight container. Yield: about 3 dozen.
