Horse Cakes/Cookies

[reneigh]

Anyone have any good recipes they'd care to share? I'm going to bake a cake or cookies for my pony, Fiona, in celebration of our 5 months together tomorrow. I'd appreciate some other ones besides carrot, since I already have one. Thanks!

. get 2 apples and 2 long carrots(make sure theu're fresh or the treats will be goo-y)
2. cut the apples(you can inclued the middle stem thing but i don't like to) into little bitty peices
3. do the same with the carrots but don't make them as small
4. poor some malasis into a bowl(just a little!!)
5. if you can get access to oats then you can add some and if you have any good suppliments then you can add that too
6. wash the apples and carrots to make them taste sweeter
7. mix in the apples and carrots(with your hands...altho it will be sticky, it mixes it better)
8. when its all mixed up you can take little chunks out and roll them into balls(but make them small enough for a horse to eat easy)
9. then let them harden..since theres only a little bit of malassis(only enough to make all the food in the treats stick together) it shouldn't take too long

Not sure if this helps!

Maybe you should've cooked them at a lower temperature for a longer time. That happens with a lot of things when I bake them, ha.

Haha me neither, don't worry...
Especially when I'm cooking pancakes. I always seem to manage to either eat a majority of the batter so I only get like 3 pancakes or I burn the outside and the inside is uncooked. Gotta love it
;)

[bethfornow]

LOL eww mushy pancakes!!! :D

Know the feeling though. I burnt cupcakes I was making for a church function and cleared out our meeting hall b cuz of the smell!! It wasn't good!

[reneigh]

Hahaha nice. I'm getting better though. I've learned that I should just put LESS batter and turn down the heat for a longer time. I used to make huuuge pancakes that nobody would eat because they were un/overcooked.. haha
