Time 2h10m

Yield 11

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix (such as Duncan Hines®)
1 cup water
⅓ cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 pound flaked coconut, or more as needed, divided
3 drops red food coloring, or as needed
3 drops green food coloring, or as needed
2 marshmallows, halved lengthwise
1 (16 ounce) container ready-to-use pink frosting, or more as needed
3 tablespoons ready-to-use white frosting, or as needed
1 pink fruit rolls (such as General Mills® Fruit Roll-Ups)
pink paper bunny ears

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour 3 muffin cups. Grease and flour an oven-proof glass or ceramic bowl.
  • Beat cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs together in a bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until just-moistened. Increase mixer speed to medium and beat until batter is smooth, about 2 minutes. Fill prepared muffin cups with batter; pour remaining batter into prepared oven-proof bowl.
  • Bake cupcakes in the preheated oven until golden and the tops spring back when lightly pressed, 18 to 21 minutes. Let cupcakes cool briefly in the muffin tin before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Bake cake in the preheated oven until golden and a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 33 to 45 minutes. Let cake rest in the bowl for 10 to 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Transfer cooled cake to a serving platter.
  • Place 2/3 of the coconut into a resealable plastic bag; add red food coloring, seal the bag, and shake until coconut is shaded pink. Repeat process until coconut is your desired shade of pink.
  • Measure out about 1/2 cup of remaining coconut and place in a bowl. Pour remaining coconut into another resealable plastic bag; add green food coloring, seal the bag, and shake until coconut is shaded green. Repeat process until coconut is your desired shade of green.
  • Secure 2 cupcakes, tops against the cake, with toothpicks to one end of the cake to form bunny "feet." Place 2 marshmallow halves, cut-side down, on top of each cupcake to complete each "foot." Secure remaining cupcake, top-side against the cake, with a toothpick to the top of the cake to create the "tail."
  • Spread pink frosting over cake and "feet", excluding the "tail." Cover pink frosting with pink coconut. Spread white frosting over the "tail" and cover with reserved white coconut.
  • Cut fruit roll to form 2 small ovals and 6 smaller circles. Using frosting as "glue," secure 1 oval and 3 circles to each "foot" to resemble foot pads. Secure paper bunny ears to the serving plate at the front of the bunny cake using frosting. Sprinkle green coconut around the cake to resemble grass.

Time 55m

Yield 15 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

15 oz vanilla cake mix
8 oz vanilla frosting
1 lb white chocolate
1 teaspoon coconut oil
⅓ cup sprinkles, for decorating

Steps:

  • Bake the cake according to the package instructions. Let cool completely.
  • Use a fork to break the cake into fine crumbs, then add the frosting and stir until well-incorporated and the mixture holds together when pressed between your fingers.
  • Roll the mixture into golf ball-sized balls, with a corresponding number of smaller balls to serve as bunny tails. Chill in the freezer for 5-10 minutes, until firm.
  • Add the white chocolate and coconut oil to a medium microwave-safe bowl. Melt in the microwave at half-power in 30-second intervals, stirring between, until smooth.
  • Dip the cake balls in the white chocolate to coat completely, then place on a sheet of parchment paper. (If the white chocolate starts to harden, microwave for 15 seconds to re-melt.) Before the chocolate sets, decorate with the sprinkles as desired and stick the smaller balls onto the larger balls to make bunny butts.
  • Let the cake balls sit at room temperature or in the refrigerator until the chocolate sets.
  • Enjoy!

BUNNY BUTT SNICKERDOODLE COOKIES



Bunny Butt Snickerdoodle Cookies image

Turn store-bought cookie dough into an adorable and subtly spiced Easter treat.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

One 16.5-ounce tube refrigerated sugar cookie dough
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons cream cheese, at room temperature
1 tablespoon whole milk
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
White sprinkles, for decorating

Steps:

  • Add the cookie dough to a medium bowl, then fold in the flour and 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon until well combined. Refrigerate until cold, about 10 minutes.
  • Set aside 1/3 cup (about 1.6 ounces) of the dough for the tails. Cut the remaining dough into 8 equal pieces (about 1.8 ounces each). Roll each piece into a 9-inch-long rope, pressing a little harder on the ends to make them pointy (these will become the ears). Gather both ends of a rope and loosely twist the rope twice in the middle to create the bunny body, leaving an open loop at the bottom (the tail will go here) and separating the pointed ends at the top to look like ears. Transfer to an ungreased rimmed baking sheet and repeat with the remaining 7 ropes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Divide the reserved dough into 8 equal pieces (about 0.2 ounces each). Roll each piece into a ball and place into the loop of the bunny body. Freeze until very cold, about 20 minutes. Bake until the cookies are set and just turning golden on the bottoms, about 16 minutes. Transfer the bunnies to a wire rack to cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, mix the confectioners' sugar, cream cheese and milk in a medium bowl until smooth. Mix the granulated sugar and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl. While the bunnies are still warm, brush all over with some of the cream-cheese glaze and sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar. Brush the tails with a little more glaze, then decorate with sprinkles. Let the bunnies cool completely, about 30 minutes. Serve any remaining glaze on the side for dipping.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The better the chocolate, the better your Easter Bunny Butts will taste. Look for chocolate with a high cocoa content (at least 70%) and a smooth, velvety texture.
  • Temper your chocolate: Tempering chocolate is a process of heating and cooling it in a specific way. This helps to stabilize the chocolate and give it a glossy finish. If you don't temper your chocolate, it will be more likely to seize up and become grainy.
  • Use a variety of toppings: Get creative with your toppings! You can use anything from sprinkles and chopped nuts to mini marshmallows and edible glitter. The more colorful and festive your Easter Bunny Butts are, the better.
  • Package your Easter Bunny Butts in cellophane bags: This will help to keep them fresh and prevent them from melting. You can also tie a ribbon around each bag for a festive touch.

Conclusion:

Easter Bunny Butts are a fun and easy treat to make for Easter. They're perfect for kids and adults alike, and they're sure to be a hit at any Easter party. So get creative and have fun with your Easter Bunny Butts! Happy Easter!
