This past weekend, I made pupcakes.
I mean, I know it was Mother’s Day and all and that, traditionally speaking, Koly and Fe should have baked for me, but let’s face it: there would be a lot of dog hair in that cake.
I was playing around with a new Chicken Pupckae recipe (it’s not quite perfect yet) and by the third batch, I realized we had way too make pupcakes. WAY, WAY TOO MANY.
My dogs get pupcakes as a treat, that means a very small part of their diet (less than 10%). There was simply no way we were going to use all these pupcakes before they went bad.
I decided to turn our soft pupcakes into a crunchy dried treat.
It’s super easy to turn leftover cake into a crunch treat that will last much longer.
These dry, crunchy cookies will drive your dog wild. Here’s what you need:
- Leftover Pupcakes – some recipes that would suit well are our Carrot Apple Pupcakes, Peanut Butter & Carrot Treats or our Gingerbread treats
- Finely serrated knife
- Cookie Sheet or Dehydrator
If you are using the oven, turn it to 150F.
Slice cupcakes into 1/4 slices and lay out on the cookie sheet or dehydrator trays. If desired, you can cut the cake into training treat sized bites.
Bake for 3 – 4 hours. If you prefer to use a dehydrator, dry for 4 – 6 hours.Store in a cool, dry, airtight container.
Pupcake Crisps are ready when they snap clean in half and have no moisture left in the middle.
