As I'm looking for ideas for Christmas gifts for our pup friends I found this thought it would be nice to share.
Dog Biscuit Mix in a Jar
Here's a great gift-in-a-jar idea for fellow dog lovers!
# 1-1/2 cups whole wheat flour
# 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
# 1-1/2 tsp. sugar
# 1 cup powdered milk
# 2/3 cup quick oats
# 1/3 cup yellow cornmeal
# 2 T. beef bouillon granules
Layer the above ingredients in a one quart jar in the order listed, pressing each layer firmly before adding the next. Place a 2-piece lid on the jar. Place a circle of fabric over the lid. Secure with a piece of thin ribbon or raffia.
Attach a card to the jar with the following directions -
To Prepare the dog biscuits -
Empty the mix into a bowl, and stir the ingredients together. Cut in 1/2 cup CriscoŽ. Mix in l large, lightly beaten egg + 3/4 cup hot water. Knead the dough for 5 minutes. Wrap in waxed paper and refrigerate for one half hour. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough 1/2" thick and cut into dog bone shapes. Place on a microwave-safe plate and microwave at 50% power for 5 minutes. Turn biscuits over and microwave at 50% power for 2 more minutes. Repeat with remaining dough. Place biscuits on wire racks to cool and harden for a few hours before storing in an airtight container.
