How to Make Cake for Dogs
Celebrate your dog's birthday or gotcha day with this simple dog cake recipe.
Servings: 1 cake
Ingredients
- 3 cups Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 5 Eggs
- 1 ½ cups Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 4 tablespoon Honey
- 4 oz Vegetable Beef Baby Food*
- 6 slices Bacon
- 4 oz Cream Cheese
- Natural Peanut Butter** as needed
- ¼ cup Shredded Cheese
- Mini Milkbones*** as sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Mix flour, baking soda, and baking powder in a mixing bowl.
- Add the eggs, oil, honey, and baby food. Stir well.
- Crumble 3 slices of bacon. Add and mix.
- Pour mixture into desired sized pans. (I used two 8.5 x 6 x 1.5 inch pans.)
- Bake for about 20-25 minutes (or until done). Let cool completely.
- Combine cream cheese and peanut in a bowl for frosting. I kept adding peanut butter to the 4 ounces of cream cheese until it was thick enough to spread without dripping.
- After the cakes have cooled, spread peanut butter on top of one cake.
- Layer the other cake on top.
- Top with the peanut butter and cream cheese mixture.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese, crumbled bacon, and mini milk bones.
- Add candles (carefully) and sing to your pup!
- Be LOVED even more. (Is that even possible?!)
Notes
* I used this 4 oz. Gerber Beef Vegetable Baby Food.
** It's important to use a peanut butter that does NOT contain xylitol. You can read why in this Peanut Butter Banana Dog Treat Recipe. I like to use (and eat) Skippy’s Natural Peanut Butter.
*** These Mini Milk-Bone Dog Treats are great as a topping. They resemble fun sprinkles for dogs.
