Ingredients

  • Round cookies (store-bought or homemade)
  • Pink and white frosting
  • Regular-size marshmallows
  • Mini marshmallows
  • Sanding sugar sprinkles (pink or pastel colors)

Equipment:

  • Small plates
  • Frosting knife or butter knife
  • Kitchen scissors
  • Frosting bag or zip-top baggie

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cookies:
    • Spread a thin layer of white frosting on top of each cookie using a frosting knife or butter knife.
  2. Add Colored Sugar:
    • Pour the sanding sugar sprinkles onto separate small plates.
    • Press the frosted side of each cookie into the colored sugar to coat it evenly.
  3. Create Bunny Feet:
    • Cut the regular-size marshmallows in half using kitchen scissors.
    • Place pink frosting in a frosting bag or a zip-top baggie with the corner cut off.
    • Pipe small pink dots onto the non-sticky side of the marshmallow halves to create bunny paw pads.
  4. Attach the Feet:
    • Add a small dot of pink frosting to the sticky side of the marshmallow halves to act as glue.
    • Press the bunny feet onto the frosted cookies, positioning them near the bottom edge.
  5. Add the Bunny Tail:
    • Place a dot of pink frosting on the bottom of a mini marshmallow.
    • Press the mini marshmallow onto the center-top of the cookie to create a fluffy bunny tail.
  6. Chill and Serve:
    • Store the decorated cookies in the refrigerator, covered with plastic wrap, until ready to serve.

Notes

  1. Use store-bought round cookies or bake your favorite sugar cookie recipe to save time.
  2. If you don’t have sanding sugar sprinkles, you can use colored sugar or even edible glitter for a sparkly effect.
  3. Keep the marshmallows fresh by storing them in an airtight container until ready to use.
  4. Chill the cookies before serving to help the frosting set
