Ingredients
- 1 box of vanilla cake mix
- Ingredients required by the cake mix (usually water, oil, and eggs)
- 1 can of white frosting
- 2-3 cups of shredded coconut
- Chocolate chips or candies for the eyes and nose
- Pink and white marshmallows for the ears
Instructions
- Preheat your oven according to the cake mix instructions. Grease and flour two round cake pans.
- Prepare the vanilla cake mix as per the box directions and pour into the prepared pans. Bake until golden brown, typically about 25-30 minutes.
- Once baked, let the cakes cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
- Once cooled, carefully level the tops of the cakes if they domed up during baking. Place one cake on a serving plate; this will be the bunny’s body.
- Cut the second cake in half and shape it into the bunny’s head. You can adjust the size based on how big you want the head to be.
- Spread a layer of frosting on the top of the first cake, then place the head on top of it. Cover both the head and body with a generous layer of frosting.
- Next, roll the shredded coconut and press it onto the frosting to create a fluffy bunny coat. Ensure that it covers all visible frosting.
- Use chocolate chips or candies to make the bunny’s eyes and nose. Cut the marshmallows in half to create the ears, and place them on top of the head.
