Why are we smiling?

Because Mom's friend, Sue, sent her a Betty Crocker recipe for new dog treats!   Mom said she would make them because we are very good boys, and to make up for this humiliation:

Are you ready?   Introducing:

DOG BARK TREATS RECIPE

INGREDIENTS

 5 slices bacon

2 slices Cheddar cheese (3/4 oz each)

2 cups carob chips   (Note: Do NOT use chocolate chips!)

1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter

1. Line a cookie sheet with foil. Spray lightly with cooking spray.

2.  Cook bacon  in a skillet over low heat, turning occasionally, until crisp.  Drain on paper towels.  Coarsely chop bacon; set aside.

3.  Using 1 1/4-inch small dog bone cookie cutter, cut 15 dog bone shapes out of cheese slices.   Set aside.

4.  In medium bowl, microwave carob chips uncovered on high 30 seconds; stir.  Microwave 30 seconds longer.  Be careful not to burn the chips! Stir in peanut butter.

5.  Spread carob mixture on foil to 1/4-inch thickness, about a 9-inch square.  Immediately sprinkle with bacon and cheese; press lightly into carob mixture.  Chill   until set, about 15 minutes in freezer, or 30 minutes in refrigerator.

6.   Remove from foil; break  into 18 pieces.  Store in airtight container   in refrigerator for 5 days.

7.  FEED OFTEN TO YOUR DOGS!  (We added that last one. )

These treats are so tasty and make us VERY happy!
