If you are a dog owner or know someone with doggies, these Peanut Butter Pupkies make a great gift.
You can see me making a variation of these dog treats in the video below.
There’s only about 5 minutes of actual work and all the rest is simply baking time. Whip up a batch of these and watch the doggies go crazy for them!
If you like, you can cut these out with cute little cookie cutters, but I simply cut them into squares or rectangles with a pizza cutter. This would be a great project for kiddos too, if you have any in the house.
I cut larger rectangles for my doggies and made a few smaller ones for my neighbor-dog.
They make a great gift for your friends who have dogs, too :)
Preheat your oven to 350°(F).
Combine all of the ingredients in your mixer’s mixing bowl. Using the dough hook attachment, mix until everything is combined.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
With a rolling pin, roll the dough to 1/4 – 1/3 inch thick.
Cutting the Dog Biscuits
You can use cute cookie cutters if you like. I take the quick route and cut the dough into rectangles with a pizza cutter. How big or small you cut them depends upon your dog. Big treats for big dogs, little treats for little dogs.
Place the treats on two baking sheets that are lined with silicone baking mats or parchment paper. The treats can be close to one another, but shouldn’t be touching.
Take a fork and poke several holes in each treat. Poke the fork all the way through to the baking sheet.
Bake the treats for 50 minutes, then turn off the oven and don’t open the oven door. Leave the treats in the warm oven for at least 2 hours. This allows the treats to completely dry and harden.
Store the treats in an airtight container.
Your pups will enjoy these!
