Easter Bunny Cupcakes

Since I made Easter Chick cupcakes last year I decided that I should make some Easter Bunny ones this year!  To make them you will need cupcakes using your favorite recipe, white frosting, shredded coconut, large marshmallows, miniature marshmallows, pink decorator sugar, pink and blue jelly beans, and pink decorator gel.

Generously frost your cupcakes and then dunk them into some shredded coconut.  Cut some large marshmallows in half with your kitchen scissors, pinch into an oval shape, and dunk the cut side into the pink sugar.  Place two on the cupcake for ears using some frosting to hold them in place.  Use blue jelly beans as eyes and a pink jelly bean as a nose.  You can use black decorator gel to make pupils in the eyes but I think it makes them look demented.  Place two minature marshmallows below the nose as teeth and pipe some whiskers using the pink decorator gel.  Go here for a step-by-step video showing how to make them.

There are quite a few steps involved but they are so easy.  I think kids would love making these cute bunnies.  Give them a try!
