Annie's Birthday Cupcakes

Submitted by ElizWlsn

"My dogs love these. A couple could be a meal. They are moist and substantial. This is a great way to use up all the chicken bits and skin etc. left from making soup if you don't want to just stew up chickens for your dogs like I do. You can frost these or not. I call them cupcakes if I do and muffins if I don't."

 

• Ready In: 45mins
• Ingredients: 11
• Yields: 24 Cupcakes

ingredients

• 2 cups chicken, stewed
• 1 1⁄2 cups cooked rice
• 1 1⁄2 cups of shredded carrots
• 6 cups flour
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 3 eggs
• 4 tablespoons baking soda
• water, to correct consisteny
• 12 ounces cream cheese
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1⁄4 cup margarine or 1/4 cup butter

directions

1. Mix all ingredients together well. I use my Kitchen Aid mixer with the paddle.
2. Add water till mix seems about the consistency muffin mix usually is; pretty wet but not pourable.
3. Use a large spoon or dry measuring scoop to fill muffin tins almost full. Bake for 20 - 30 minute at 375.
4. Frosting.
5. Whip till consistency you want. Put a dollop on each one after they've cooled.
6. I only put a bit of it on each one because it's messy and too much dairy isn't good for them.
7. I used goats cheese because we always have it in the freezer from our goats but cream cheese is what I would use otherwise. . I use the honey to help bind ingredients.
8. You can also substitute brown rice for the white or use another vegetable if you want.
