FROZEN PUP CUPS
Author: Michelle @ An Italian Kitchen
Frozen Pup Cups made with Greek yogurt, chicken stock, and mozzarella — an easy overnight frozen dog treat that’s refreshing, simple, and pup-approved.
Prep Time 15 minutes mins
Freeze 6 hours hrs
Total Time 6 hours hrs 15 minutes mins
Blender
Silicone cupcake molds
Baking Sheet
- ¾ cup Non-fat Greek Yogurt
- ¼ cup Chicken Stock
- ¼ cup Water
- 2 Tablespoons Mozzarella Cheese - finely chopped (I use 1 mozzarella cheese stick)
Blend the Ingredients. Place the Greek yogurt, chicken stock, water, and finely chopped mozzarella into a small blender. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
Fill the Molds. Arrange about 10 silicone cupcake molds on a baking sheet for stability. Pour the yogurt mixture into each mold, filling about 2–2½ tablespoons per cup.
Freeze Overnight. Transfer the baking sheet carefully to the freezer and freeze overnight, or until completely firm.
Serve & Garnish (Optional). Remove from molds and top with a small spoonful of whipped cream, a mini dog biscuit, or a thin carrot ribbon for a playful finish.
Buon Appetito, Preston 🐾
Serving & Safety Tips:
- Hold the silicone mold while your pup licks, or pop it out and serve on a washable surface (aka - supervise while enjoying!)
- For smaller pups, freeze in ice cube trays for mini portions.
- Ensure your chicken stock is low-sodium and onion/garlic-free.
- Introduce dairy slowly if your pup isn’t used to it.
- Serve in moderation — this is a treat, not a meal replacement.
🚨🐾 Dog Kitchen Safety Note 🐾🚨
This recipe uses dog-friendly ingredients, but always introduce new foods slowly and in moderation. Never feed dogs onion, garlic, chocolate, grapes, raisins, xylitol (can be found in some peanut butters), and excess salt. If your pup has sensitivities or health conditions, check with your veterinarian before trying new treats.
