                        Basset Buffet Cruiser Cookies
 
Here is a good recipe we are making tonight that is a great addition  to 
any Basset Buffet Table! It is pretty loose you cant go wrong! This is a cut  
down sized receipe so you can just try it out. Mmmmm
 
Watch out even you cat will eat these! Be sure to freeze em though in a  
sealed container till needed and don't leave them out.
 
1 1/2# chicken hearts  (Safeway usually carried em) *see note can  also 
substitute 3 
    (chicken hearts make the "cleanest"  dough.            cans of  tuna in 
oil (a bit stinky)
 
5     Garlic cloves  peeled     (if your dogs like  garlic)                 
                      
2    Tablespoons Olive Oil
3/4  Cup Chicken Stock or water to start
1     Cup Cottage Cheese
1     Cup Rice Bran (or you can use wheat germ) or  both :)
3-5   Cups Keenwa flour  (sp! ) or you can use whole-wheat  flour
2      Whole Eggs shell and all if you are able to  puree * I usually save 
all eggshells    and dry them then grind  em up and use as supplement in 
hounds meals...so have the powdery egg shell to  add to the dog cookie recipe. 
You can just use the whole eggs too if you are  able to puree. If you are 
mixing with your hands only you can leave out 
the egg shells if you have not dried and ground up the shells.
 
In saucepan combine the chicken (or tuna with the oil)  (or whatever  meat 
chicken livers are good too) garlic, and water (I just use enough to cover  
starting out with 3/4 cup total liquid) bring to a boil then cover and 
simmer  until done about 10 minutes let it cool covered.
 
Puree the meat/garlic mixture. Add liquid from cooking and the two  eggs 
and the cottage cheese mix some more. You can also add more chicken  stock 
total liquid not more than 1 1/2 cups at the end to help with  getting it out 
of the mixer. Dump the rice bran and about 3 cups of the keenwa  (or flour) 
into a big bowl and mix a bit. Add the meat/egg/cottage cheese  mixture. Stir 
with dough hook or strong hands. Add more flour to make a sticky  dough. 
*** I whip all the wet stuff together with a wire whip then squish the meat 
 by hand and moosh it all up together. I wrote puree it/dough hook it for  
all the real cooks. :)
Hounds don't care if its not really well mixed. Oh yeah..I save egg shells  
and let them dry and then put em in a blender...and add that and not the 
whole  eggs...but if you puree it then it will blend up just fine)
 
Now add more keenwa flour or wheat flour to make a fairly stiff  dough 
though sticky. Let it rest a bit. Flour a board well. Take about 1/2 the  
mixture it will be somewhat sticky and smish it out flat. Dust with flour  well 
then roll out to 1/4 inch. Cut with a pizza cutter.
 
If you want to make pretty cookies you can cut our shapes with cookie  
cutters. I have found that a pizza cutter on the well floured top and bottom  
dough works great. Hounds dont care.
 
The cookies can touch on the cookie sheet. Bake 300* for 50 or 60 minutes.  
Take a look at 50 minutes and if they need another few minutes not more 
than 10  more minutes (total tops 60 minutes) Loosen em up with a spatula   
after 50 minutes they should be done usually and then put them back  into the 
oven with it turned off and leave overnight IN THE OVEN. 
 
DO NOT LEAVE OUT ON THE COUNTER or your Houndies might cruise. IT will  
continue to dry out the cookies if you leave them in the warm (light on in  
oven if can)  overnight.  
DO NOT USE CALF or BEEF Meat or MACKERELL or SARDINES IT WILL STINK TOO  
MUCH!!!  as substitute for the chicken hearts or livers (tuna is  OK ...choke) 
lol  The Hounds don't mind..but its a killer liver meat smell  if you use 
that beef) TRUELY A WARNING BECAUSE THE BEEF  IS SMELLY.
 
* If you use tuna the cooking time will be less about 45 minutes at  300*
 
PS last year my Sister used this and she also added shredded cheese and  
made hundreds of little dog bone cookies to this. Most all the dogs  preferred 
these cookies to the MEATBALLS that we had on the buffet table!
