2. Place Dixie cups on a cookie sheet to freeze in the freezer. Or if using ice cream molds just pop the molds tray into the freezer.
3. Once frozen you can pop the ice cream treats out of their Dixie cups or ice cream molds into a zip-top freezer bag.
*You can also use this dog ice cream mixture as a way to stuff your dog’s Kong.
Pour the homemade frosty paws mixture into the Kong, then put the Kong in the freezer to freeze. Pull out the Kong when frozen and let your dog enjoy!
Easy as that! You’ll have homemade frosty paws ready to go in the freezer whenever your pup needs a nice cool treat.
