  2. Grease a small cake pan or muffin tin. This recipe makes a small cake in a serving size suitable for your dog and a friend. If you have more canine guests, you'll want to double the recipe.[1]

  3. Mix the ingredients together in a medium bowl. Use an electric mixer or your own elbow grease to mix up the peanut butter, egg, banana, baking powder and cottage cheese until the batter is smooth and creamy.

    • If you want the cake to have a firmer structure, add 1/2 cup of wheat flour. Many dogs are sensitive to wheat, so you should only do this if you know your dog can safely eat wheat products.
    • If your dog like sweeter treats, you can also add 2 teaspoons apple juice.
    • Don't add extra sugar or salt, since it's not good for your dog.
  4. Spoon the batter into the prepared pan. Use the back of your spoon to smooth over the top, so it will bake evenly.

  5. Bake the cake for 15 to 20 minutes. Test the cake to see if it's done by sticking a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, it's done.

  6. Let the cake cool for 10 minutes before removing it from the pan. Don't dish it up right away, since it's too hot for your dog's mouth.

  7. Ice the cake with extra peanut butter. If you want it to have the lighter texture of regular cake icing, beat equal parts peanut butter and cream cheese, then spread it on the cake.

    • You know best what your dog finds tasty. Feel free to add a handful of other vegetables your dog likes to "sweeten" the cake for him or her.
    • You could also add herbs for some gourmet flair. Add a tablespoon of chopped parsley if you know your dog likes the taste.
  5. Press the mixture into the prepared pan. Use your fingers to press it evenly into the pan. Use the back of a spoon to smooth the top.
