Ace's Favorite Cheesy Dog Biscuits

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour

1 1/4 cups grated cheddar cheese

1/4 pound margarine -- corn oil

1 clove garlic -- crushed

1 pinch salt

1/4 cup Milk -- or as needed

Grate the cheese into a bowl and let stand until it reaches room temperature. Cream the cheese with the softened margarine, garlic, salt and flour. Add enough milk to form into a ball.

Chill for 1/2 hour. Roll onto floured board. Cut into shapes and bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes or until slightly brown, and firm.

Makes 2 to 3 dozen, depending on size.
