RECIPE: DOG BIRTHDAY CAKE

Today it is Co’s 3rd birthday, so I set myself the task of making her a delicious cake to celebrate!

This is a simple, easy to follow recipe and includes dog friendly ingredients!
The quantities I used makes 1 medium sized cake.

Ingredients needed:

2 cups of white self-raising flour
50g of diced, unsalted butter
1 tablespoon of crushed liver treats
1 cup of lactose free milk
1/4 cup of carob chocolate treats or yoghurt drops (for decorating)

Step 1: Preheat over to 180°C/350°F.
Step 2: Rub 50g of butter and 2 cups of flour together in a bowl until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs.
Step 3: Mix in 1 tablespoon of crushed liver treats.
Step 4: Slowly mix in 1 cup of milk.
Step 5: Once all the ingredients are incorporated together, place onto a floured surface. Knead the dough until it is smooth.
Step 6: Shape the dough into your desired shape. Then place in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
Step 7: Remove from oven and allow to cool on a cooling tray.

Decorating: Once the cake has cooled down you can decorate it. Melt carob chocolate treats or yoghurt drops in microwave, then decorate cake however you desire.
