1. Combine all ingredients in your blender—cottage cheese, blueberries, strawberries, honey, and water. A powerful blender works best for smooth texture.
2. Blend until completely smooth, about 60-90 seconds. You want it looking like thick berry smoothie with no cottage cheese lumps visible.
3. Pour mixture into silicone molds or ice cube trays. Silicone molds work best for easy removal, but any freezer-safe molds work fine.
4. Freeze for at least 4 hours until completely solid. These take longer than regular ice due to dairy content—be patient for perfect texture!
5. Let sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes before serving to prevent tongue-sticking and allow flavors to brighten. Always supervise with frozen treats.

Notes:

• Use fresh berries only—frozen berries can add too much water and affect texture
• Amber prefers these slightly thawed for easier eating and better flavor release
• Start with smaller portions for dogs new to dairy-based treats

Storage Tips:

• Store in airtight containers in freezer for up to 2 months
• Transfer to freezer bags after completely frozen for efficient storage
• Don’t leave exposed—dairy treats absorb freezer odors quickly
• Label containers with date and contents for freshness tracking
