I made this strawberry yogurt cake for my dog Luna’s birthday last month. The strawberries sweetened the batter, and she licked the frosting spoon before I could frost the cake.

I keep the cake covered in the fridge for up to two days. Luna gets a small slice as a treat, and the cake usually lasts us two days.
