Tips:

  • Prep the dough in advance: To save time, make the dough the night before and let it rise in the refrigerator overnight. This will give you a head start on the recipe and allow the dough to develop more flavor.
  • Use a bread machine: If you have a bread machine, you can use it to knead and rise the dough. This is a great option if you're short on time or don't want to do it by hand.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: To help the dough rise properly, place it in a warm spot in your kitchen. You can also preheat your oven to the lowest setting and then turn it off. Place the dough in the oven with the door closed for a warm, draft-free environment.
  • Don't over-knead the dough: Over-kneading can make the dough tough. Knead it just until it is smooth and elastic, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Shape the dough carefully: When shaping the dough into bunnies, be careful not to handle it too much. Over-handling can make the dough tough.
  • Bake the bunnies until they are golden brown: To ensure that the bunnies are cooked through, bake them until they are golden brown. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
  • Make the dip ahead of time: The dip can be made up to 2 days in advance. Simply store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
