Dog Cake Instructions

  1. So, carefully wash the cherries, dry them, take out the seeds. We try not to miss a drop of juice: it will make the cake tastier. So clean right over the bowl where the dough will be.
  2. Add all dry ingredients to the juice: flour, cocoa, sugar, soda and vanillin. Mix together, add sugar, coconut oil (pre-melt), coffee, cherries and wine. Mix thoroughly.

  3. If possible, bake an oval cake. Or we make a cake of any shape, and then cut off the excess to make an oval. We will make five circles from the remnants, put them in a circle – these will be the dog’s paws and muzzle.
  4. Melt the butter and chocolate in a water bath, pour through a plastic bag with a hole or with the help of a cooking syringe the cake abundantly on top to make “wool”. When it hardens, we decorate the cake so that it turns out to be a dog!

Bon appetit!
