“FROSTY PAWS” KEEPING YOUR BEST FRIEND COOL THIS SUMMER
This is a recipe that I found in a magazine last year. I tried it because I was tired of my dogs
begging for my “chocolate chocolate chip” ice cream every night as we watched TV. As most of you know, chocolate is one of those foods that could make your dog very sick and possibly could kill them, so don't ever feed your dog chocolate.
I made these the first time in a small amount, (big mistake) and they were gone before I could drag the honey back out of the cupboard.
I have now learned how to make a large flavorful batch and keep them happy and healthy on all those hot summer days.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED FOR “FROSTY PAWS”
32 ounce container of vanilla yogurt
2 tablespoons of honey
2 tablespoons of plain peanut butter ( not crunchy)
1 mashed banana or 1 large jar of baby food (strained fruit)
(you can also substitute the banana with fresh blueberries, mashed peaches, or sugar free applesauce)
Using a blender add all ingredients and blend till smooth and creamy.
Pour into clean dry ice cube trays and freeze overnight. (usually makes 3 full trays )
When fully frozen, pop out cubes and store in freezer in large air tight container.
I hope you try them, they are easy to make, easy to store and your canine buddy will come running when you yell “WHO WANTS FROSTY PAWS?”
