Day 17 : Rudolf

Making Rudolf the Reindeer Pupcakes

  

You will need to sniff out ...

1 cup rice flour (or plain/all purpose)

1 cup shredded carrots

1 banana

1 large egg

1/3 cup porridge oats

1/3 peanut butter

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1/4 cup honey

tsp baking powder (soda)

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

~~~

2 tubs soft low-fat cheese for the frosting

treats for decorations

How to make them!

Sit on the kitchen floor (or balance on a kitchen stool if you want a better view) and watch while your hooman switches the oven on at 170 C, now bark at them to mix all the wet ingredients together in a bowl and then add the dry ingredients and mix really really well. How easy is this huh!

Now you need to supervise while your hooman spoons the yummy mixture into the pupcases and places them into the oven (stand well back for that manoeuvre)

Bake them for 15-20 minutes - this is YOUR moment to shine as you should go sit and watch them bake and bark a warning if you see them beginning to burn.
If your oven doesn't have a light then you'll just have to rely on the fire alarm sounding.

Decorating your pupcakes

This bit is the best part!

Whine at your hooman to streak a line of peanut butter along the inside of the piping bag, then fill it full of the soft cheese and pipe onto the cakes (they will hopefully give it a two-tone effect) or as in our case - make the reindeer look like they have mange BOL

Finally snap a milk bone biscuit in half and insert onto the cake to represent antlers, use carob drops for the eyes OR use a meaty chew snipped up into rounds.

We added a tiny red nose (hooman grade) for that extra naughtiness but you could use another carob drop instead.

ENJOY!
