Baking a doggie birthday cake

This is completely random and hilarious, but I have been getting requests for the recipe I used to make Annabelle‘s half-birthday cake a couple of weeks ago.

Truth: It looked so good that I kind of wanted to try it.

I modified this peanut butter dog biscuit recipe from Pink Pistachio, omitting the coconut and the applesauce and replacing it with other ingredients (as you’ll see). And I baked it in a regular round cake pan instead of rolling it out and cutting shapes because LAZY.

Peanut Butter Liver Dog Cake
Serves: 4-6 neighbourhood pups

• Preheat the oven to 350F
• Mix together 1 cup flour + 1/4 cup oats + 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• Add 1/4 cup of the powder at the bottom of the bag of freeze-dried liver treats (finally — a use for that powder)
• In a separate bowl, mix together 1/2 cup peanut butter + 1/2 cup milk + 1 egg + 1 tbsp. olive oil
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until combined
• Scrape the batter into a round greased cake pan
• Bake 20-25 minutes until golden and firm-ish
• Transfer to a cooling rack

• Don’t eat it even though it looks like a delicious giant cookie
• Once it’s cool, ice it with plain ol’ peanut butter

• Garnish with cut-up cooked sausage. 
• Bacon would also be a nice touch.
