What did the tasters think? Riley, of course, gobbled them up. But he’s not fussy. Cody, however, generally does not take to any food that’s not his familiar brand. His usual pattern is to reluctantly take a new treat and carry it off somewhere to his private laboratory for analysis. This can take days—or until Riley slips in and steals it.
But this recipe passed the Cody test! It only took about 30 seconds—and a drooling look from Riley—for Cody to chomp in. After that, he was hooked.
The recipe was easy enough. I used one cup of Trader Joe’s low-sodium chicken broth for the liquid, fresh organic peanut butter from Roots, and shredded cheddar cheese. I didn’t use a cookie cutter (dogs don’t seem to care if their treats are bone-shaped), but cut the dough into one-inch squares. I baked them at 350 until lightly browned (about 40 minutes) and then left them in the oven overnight to harden.
I ran out of cookie sheets and shelves in the oven, so I still have a lump of dough left and froze it. I ended up with about 70 one-inch biscuits using about 2/3 of the dough.
