Baking Pupcakes!

Today we decided to do a little baking! I've done bits and pieces for the girls before, but today we decided to share the experience... We made honey muffins with a banana and vanilla cream cheese topping! These muffins are edible by humans (Jonny ate 3, minus the topping, he had icing on his) but the girls seemed to prefer it when they were eating them... I wonder why!

Our Pupcakes!

Mm yummy!
We can't stop laughing at all the big eyes and long tongues :')

The mysterious cake stealing Chihuahua that appears from the shadows only for delicious pupcakes;

The cakes are 100% dog safe and although they aren't super fattening, I do only give the girls a piece or 2 a day, so this batch of 12 will last them a good few days, although we'll probably send some over for Alfie, we best get a move on though before they're...

...all gone!

The recipe we used; 
2 cups all purpose flour 
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup sugar 
1/2 teaspoon salt 
1 egg 
1 cup milk 
1/4 cup butter (melted)
1/4 cup honey

Bake for 15-18 minutes at 400F/200C. Makes 12.

For the topping you need to combine 1 small/medium pot of natural banana yoghurt, 2 tablespoons of cream cheese, a drop of vanilla essence, 1 teaspoon icing sugar and 1/4 cup pouring cream (whipped).
Refrigerate for 30 minutes prior to piping, helps firm it up a treat ;)

You could also do different flavours - Apple and Cinnamon, Carrot cake, Peanut butter, Vanilla, Ginger, Pumpkin, Mint etc etc. There's so many to choose from :O

We hope you have a go at making your very own pupcakes and we hope they're super yummy!

Love & licks,
Rio, Jonny, Buffy, Rafferty, Monroe, Lily and Lola.
