Notes
- Adding one egg will make a drier, crunchier treat. Adding 2 eggs will give you a softer, chewier treat.
- The dough is going to be a little sticky - you will need to flour the counter, the rolling pin, and the cookie cutter. Don't worry about adding a little extra flour, the biscuits will be fine.
- The longer you bake the treats, the crispier they will become! If you like a softer treat for your pup, reduce baking time by 4 minutes.
- I used a small cookie cutter, a little under 2". If you use a larger cutter to make treats for a larger dog, you will need to increase baking time by a minute or two, and the yield will be less than 100.
