This is a people recipe but nothing in it is bad for dogs. For the dogs I frost them with vanilla yogurt but for people I use the Cream Cheese Icing recipe from the Magnolia Bakery cookbook.
Cream Cheese Frosting
Ingredients:
1/2 lb (1 eight oz packages) cream cheese,softened slightly,cut into small pieces
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter,softened slightly,cut into small pieces
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups sifted confectioner's sugar
Beat cream cheese and the butter with mixer until smooth,about 3 minutes.Add the vanilla extract.Gradually add the sugar and beat until well incorporated.
Well, this tells you how bad I am...this looks kind of healthy to me because of the fruit & nuts.
ReplyDeleteHmmm and pineapple too , our fav. Printing it out right now. Have a terrific Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
MMMM - delicious! Thank you for the recipe. Weasley is so photogenic. We love that little face.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right about the expense of having so many family members. We spend $170 biweekly on higher end kibble, plus I cook the 10lb bag of chicken leg quarters with a little tumeric and cinnamon in a crock pot for 24 hrs every 12 days. The only bones I have to remove after the cooking process are the leg and thigh bones. Everything else is mush. Each one gets a huge tablespoon of this over their breakfast and dinner feedings. Not to mention the vet bills, the monthly heartworm meds and flea control as needed. I call them my hobby - hey its cheaper than golf! LOL
I bake our own doggie biscuits and just made 400 this past weekend.
A dear friend taught me that if we are on a routine and stick to it, that taking care of them is a piece of cake. He is so right. It is as though each one has an internal clock and know what comes next.
We want you to know how much we enjoy your blog.
