I'm off work today (Jann and I took the Good Friday holiday). Everyone else had to work or go to school so I thought I would have fun today. I baked a cake then made it into an Easter Bunny cake. I first saw this cake in my Betty Crocker Cooking for Boys and Girls cookbook I received when I was about 9 years old. I looked it up on the internet and printed out the instructions. I am not a cook, nor have I ever made this cake before but I always wanted to. Anyway, here's my plain cake cooling on the racks.
Here's the cake after I cut up and arranged it. I covered a presentation board with foil since I didn't think I had a platter or cookie sheet large enough for this.
And here's the finished product. I think I did an okay job since it was my first attempt. The whiskers are chocolate twists. The eyes and buttons are peanut M&Ms. I used sprinkles on the ears and the bowtie (which now looks like shirt) instead of coloring the coconut. The mouth is just red (probably really old) icing I had in a tube up in the cabinet. I think the girls will like it (they only like white cake anyway); however, I KNOW Kaitlyn could have done a better job. She has a thing for baking. So, HAPPY EASTER!!!
