Cake Recipe For Dogs And Humans
Ingredients
Making a cake for your four-legged friend and yourself doesn't have to be complicated. This cake recipe requires minimal ingredients and is easy to make. For the base of the cake, you will need all-purpose flour, baking powder, unsalted butter, sugar, eggs, almond milk and vanilla extract.
For the icing, you will need cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract and almond milk. You will also need a tablespoon of carob powder for the dog-friendly version of the cake. Carob is a naturally sweet alternative to chocolate. It is safe for dogs to eat and is a healthier option than chocolate.
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan with butter and set aside. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and sugar. Cut the butter into small cubes and add to the bowl. Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk before adding the almond milk and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pan and transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. To make the icing, beat the cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract and almond milk. Beat until creamy and spread over the cooled cake. For the dog-friendly version, add a tablespoon of carob powder to the icing and spread it over the cake.
