Puppy Cake Smash

For Puppy-Safe Cake:

• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
• 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
• 1/4 cup local honey
• 1/4 cup organic apple sauce
• 1 cup flour
• 1 egg

For Puppy-Safe Icing:

• 1/4 cup natural peanut butter
• 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons cream cheese, room temperature
• sprinkles (optional)

Here's How:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 F/175 C. In a large bowl, mix together the vegetable oil, peanut butter, pumpkin puree, apple sauce and honey. Add in the flour and egg, then whisk until smooth.
2. Grease three 5 inch ramekins and split the cake batter evenly between them. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely.
3. While the cakes cool, whisk together the remaining peanut butter, Greek yogurt and cream cheese. The icing may be lumpy (but if your dog doesn't mind, that's okay!).
4. Spread the icing between the layers of cake, including the top. Add sprinkles, as desired, to the cake. Light a candle and sing happy birthday to your pup, then cut into bite sized pieces - this cake has 6-8 individual servings for a 30 lb dog. Enjoy!
