Chicken-Flavored Treats

I have been baking a lot this weekend! I must need the stress relief! I am going on week 3 of graduate school. So far I'm loving it, and I took advantage of less homework this weekend to bake a bunch of dog treats. I made those failed spritz treats yesterday, but I just wanted to fill up my dog's cookie jar so I made these scrumptious chicken-flavored treats today. Here is my recipe:

CHICKEN-FLAVORED TREATS

1 egg
food color, optional
2 T. butter, melted
1 C. low-sodium chicken broth
4 C. quick-cook oats, ground in blender
1/2 T. baking powder

Mix the wet ingredients with a mixer. Add dry ingredients and continually fold with a spatula. Roll out on a floured surface. Place on cooking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F. for 35 minutes. Let cool. Store in an airtight container. Enjoy!

 This is a picture of her cookie jar with the cheesy tidbits and the chicken-flavored treats. My dog watched me the whole time I was baking, and she enjoyed a few too many treats fresh out of the oven :) We both need a looong walk tomorrow!

*Failed* Dog Spritz Cookies

This was an experiment, to say the least :) I'll keep trying until I get it right! These failed spritz cookies did however make cute, delicious little morsels. Jade loves them, so that's all that matters! Here is the recipe I used:

Gourmet Cheesy Tidbits:

4 oz. 2% velveeta
1/4 C. butter
1/4 C. sugar
1/4 C. skim milk
2 C. oatmeal
1/2 T. baking powder
1/2 C. all-purpose flour

Cream together the butter, velveeta, and sugar. Add the egg and milk and mix well. Grind the oatmeal in a blender until it resembles flour. Gradually add the dry ingredients. Stuff your spritzer and use the attachment that makes "tidbits" (i don't know how to better describe it). Dot on a cookie sheet. Bake at 300 degrees for 30 minutes or so. Store in an airtight container. Bon[e] Appetit!
