Valentine's Day is one of these days during which we can show our beloved pet how much we love them. Valentine's Day is not just meant to be celebrated among humans; many dog owners say they include their dog in their Valentine's Day celebration and some even admit they prefer celebrating Valentine's Day with their companion animal.
Preheat oven to 400 ° F (200 ° C). Grease muffin tins.
Core, slice and mince the apple. Set aside. In a large bowl, mix together flour, oatmeal, baking powder, and baking soda. In a medium bowl, blend together the yogurt, water, oil, honey, and eggs, then stir in the apple and cheese. Add to the flour mixture and stir until mixed.
Spoon into the muffin tins, filling each cup about 3/4 full. Bake for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Let rest in the muffin tins for a few minutes, then remove and set aside to cool.
For the frosting, combine the cream cheese, honey and yogurt. Add enough flour to thicken the frosting to a good spreading consistency. Spread on the pupcakes.
Makes about 16 pupcakes.
Any other type of doggie cupcake can be decorated the same way, for example using ham to shape the tongue, and dog biscuits in different shapes to make the ears, eyes and nose.
