Easy Bunny Cupcake Cake
I’m surprised I haven’t seen postings of bunny cakes this easy, yet. For the grass, I dropped a few drops of green food coloring in whipped store-bought frosting. I added some green sugar sprinkles for effect.
To make the bunnies, I used half a powdered mini-donut for each body. I used my own white frosting (1 cup powdered sugar, 2T shortening, 2T butter, and milk until I got a soft but thick texture, about 2tsp) and piped it on to make the heads and cottontails.
The ears are made from large marshmallows, which I squished so that the round flat part became oval. Using kitchen shears, I cut a cross section of that oval, then cut it again lengthwise. Since these pieces were sticky, I could press one side of them into pink sprinkles, and the ears stuck easily in place on the body.
For the noses, I used strawberry Nerds candy and for the eyes, I used round color sprinkles. I think it took about an hour or so to decorate 24 cupcakes.
