Cheesecake is such a decadent, delicious treat that everyone loves, even your DOG should love cheesecake! And now they can. Here at Puppy Cake, we created a grain-free cheesecake mix specially formulated for your dogs belly. This post will show you how EASY it is to bake a cheesecake for your dog, which will have them wagging their tails for more!

STEP 1: Purchase a box of Puppy Cake Cheesecake mix at www.puppycake.com or www.amazon.com. We carry 2 flavors we’re sure your dog will love; Peanut Butter Cheesecake and Salted Caramel Cheesecake. Each box contains a packet of cheesecake mix and and packet of coconut crumble crust.

STEP 2: Grab a medium sized bowl and empty the contents of the coconut crumble crust. Add 1/3 cup of hot tap water to the crust and stir until the water is absorbed.

STEP 3: Today we’re making cheesecake cupcakes, so grab a cupcake pan and line 8-9 cupcake holes with paper liners. Press crust mixture evenly into each cupcake holder using a spoon. Once done, place your cupcake pan in the freezer while you mix the cheesecake. This will help set the crust.

STEP 4: Grab another medium sized mixing bowl and add 1 cup of steaming hot tap water to the cheesecake mix and whisk until all lumps are removed.

STEP 5: Bring the cupcake pan with the crust out of the freezer and pour batter over the crust. I used a spoon to evenly distribute the batter into each cupcake hole.

STEP 6: LET YOUR DOG LICK THE BOWL

STEP 7: Cover the cupcake pan with plastic wrap and place into the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

STEP 8: Remove from refrigerator and serve the cheesecake cupcake bites.

*Remember to take into consideration the size of your pup when feeding a slice of cheesecake or a whole cupcake. This Bernese Mountain Dog likes to think she’s small and dainty and only takes small and dainty bites!

STORAGE: Cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 7 days or in the freezer for up to 6 weeks.

INGREDIENTS: Cheesecake: Whole Milk (lactose free), Bakers Cheese (non-fat milk solids, lactic acid and cultures), Cane Sugar, Gelatin, Salt and Natural Salted Caramel Flavor. Coconut Crumble Crust: Coconut, Carob and Gelatin.
