This recipe will make approximately 50 medium-sized cat treats.
Once the treats have cooled, gently remove them and place the cookies into several small freezer bags.
Since these treats are preservative-free, they will not last forever. So to extend the life of these treats, store them inside the freezer in several small freezer bags. As needed remove a bag from the freezer and leave it out for several hours to thaw. Once the treats are thawed, transfer into a Tupperware container for easy access and store the treats inside the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
