If you like to make treats here are some recipes that i found in various books, magazines and on the web. Have fun making them and remember not to use peanuts (horses can't digest them) use only peanut butter. If you have a good receipe that you would like to share, please email it to me.
Thanks!
Patty's Peppermint Patties
1/3 cup oats
1/3 cup grain
1/3 cup molasses
1/3 cup flour
Peppermints
Mix all the ingredients except for the peppermints. Take a peppermint and put it in the middle of a ball of the dough. Bake at 350 degrees for 21 minutes. This makes about 8 patties. You may double the recipe as many times as you want.

1 cup whole wheat flour
2 spoonfuls molasses
1/2 cup water

X-Mas Treats
1 cup flour
1 cup Grape Nuts cereal
1/4 cup light corn syrup (Karo)

A few drops of food coloring (I use red)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients together. Roll into balls or other shapes. These treats work well for holidays. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until crispy.
