Cob Cookies
8 cups dry cob feed (corn,oats,barley mix)
3 cups ground carrots
1/2 cup corn oil
2 cups flour
2 cups molasses (use livestock grade from feed store - it's cheaper!)
Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl until well mixed. Let stand
for at least an hour (so the grain can absorb some of the moisture).
Stir the mixture well. Drop by rounded teaspoonful on to a well oiled cookie
sheet. Using your fingers and the teaspoon 'smoosh' the cookie into a
round slightly flattened shape. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 to 18
minutes, depending on your oven. These will burn easily so be sure not to leave
them in too long. Put the cookies on racks to cool then store them in a
tight container. Makes between 6-9 dozen.
Apple Horse Cookies
1 c. sweet feed
2 - 3 c. wheat bran
1 c. flax seed
1 T. salt
4 large apples, shredded
1 c. molasses
1/2 c. brown sugar
1 c. applesauce
Mix molasses, brown sugar, apples and applesauce in bowl. Mix dry
ingredients in a separate bowl. Gradually combine wet and dry
ingredients together, only using enough of the wet ingredients to make a thick dough. Add more bran if necessary.
Line cookie sheet with foil and spray with oil. Drop batter onto cookie
sheet in tablespoon amounts. Flatten with a fork. Bake slowly at 300° F. for 1 hour, turn cookies over and continue to bake for another 45 minutes until thoroughly dried. Reduce heat if cookies begin to brown excessively or to burn.
Store in covered container or zip-locked plastic bag and dole out as
special treats to your equine buddies.
