HOMEMADE FROSTY PAWS
Frosty Paws is a commercially-made "ice cream" for dogs. I never met a dog that didn't like it. This is a homemade version which I got off the Web. This recipe uses totally different ingredients, but like its commercial counterpart, I never met a dog that didn't like it. This recipe will make about 18 Frosty Paws.

1 quart vanilla yogurt
1 medium banana
2 T peanut butter (I use natural style)
2 T honey Puree the banana in a food processor (a blender would probably work fine). Add the peanut butter and honey and continue processing until smooth. Add yogurt and process just long enough to blend all ingredients together. Place 18 small paper cups (bathroom size) in a baking pan (one 9x13 or two 8x8 work well). Fill paper cups to about 2/3's full. An ice cream scoop or a measuring cup makes the job easier. Freeze until solid. I transfer the frozen treats to zip-lock bags for storing in the freezer.

thanks for the frosty paws recipe! :) I don't think Gonzo has ever had one, no places around here sell them...

I've made that recipe before (or one very similar). The dogs really liked it!

I couldn't find Frosty Paws anywhere here until they opened some Super Wal-marts. So if you have Super Wal-marts near you (they have a large grocery section as well as regular wal-mart stuff) check in the freezer section near the ice cream.

Looks like a good recipe. My girls have never had Frosty Paws either. We just might have to try this recipe out. Thanks, Gini.

And....Luna, the lucky liver lumps would probably be a big hit too!

Alden has started cooking up our own dog food for the girls so maybe he should add these treats to his menu...LOL.

I can honestly say my kids don't like the frosty paws you get at the grocery but the do love the homemade kind like the recipie that gini told about. I've made them and they are a BIG hit!
And Robin tell Alden that if he's making their food, he might as well make their treats for them too;)

I believe the big “T” is tablespoon and the small “t” is teaspoon.

I always thought that Tbsp was tablespoon and Tsp was teaspoon....
