Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound lean ground beef
  • 1/2 pound ground chicken
  • 1/2 pound ground turkey
  • 8-ounce package cream cheese
  • 4-ounce package liverwurst

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F., rack in the middle position.

  2. You will need 3 pie plates, or 3 layer cake pans to make this cake. (I used disposable pie pans.)

  3. Spray the 3 pans with Pam or another nonstick cooking spray.

  4. Press the half-pound of lean ground beef into the bottom of the first pan, spreading it out evenly.

  5. Press the half-pound of ground chicken into the bottom of the second pan, spreading it out evenly.

  6. Press the half-pound of ground turkey into the bottom `of the third pan, spreading it out evenly.

  7. Bake the ground meat in the 3 pans at 350 degrees F. for 25 to 30 minutes.

  8. Use a turkey baster to suck out the grease and dispose of it. Let the meat cool completely in the pans.

  9. When the meat is cool, it’s time to make the frosting. Place the cream cheese and the liverwurst in a medium-sized, microwave-safe bowl. Heat them together on HIGH for 30 seconds.

  10. Stir the cream cheese and the liverwurst together into a paste. If it’s still too solid to stir, give it another 20 seconds on HIGH in the microwave.

  11. Take one disk of meat out of its pan and place it on a cake plate. Spread a little of the frosting on top.

  12. Take another disk of meat, put it on top of the first, and spread a little more frosting on top.

  13. Take the third disk of meat, put it on top of the second, and spread a little more frosting on top. Cover this disk completely with frosting since it’ll be the top of your cake.

  14. Use a spatula or frosting knife to spread frosting on the sides of your cake.

  15. If you’d like to decorate your cake, use little Milk Bones. They come in colors. Arrange them artistically on top of the cake. (Actually your lucky doggy recipient won’t really care if they’re artistic or not.)

  16. Keep this cake REFRIGERATED until you serve it to your favorite canine.
