Spread the love

I am always trying to make fun Easter treats.  These Bunny Butt Cupcakes sure fit that bill.  The kids find them absolutely hilarious.  

Ingredients for the cupcakes:

  • 1 box of Funfetti cake mix
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1/2 cup Oil
  • 1 cup Water
  • cupcake pan
  • cupcake liners 

Directions for the cupcakes:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
  • Make the cake batter according to the box
  • Scoop batter into the cupcake liners in a cupcake pan
  • Bake the cupcakes at 350 degrees for 21 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and let cool.

Frosting ingredients:

  • 1 C unsalted sweet cream butter
  • 2 1/2 C powder sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla 
  • 3-5 TBSP heavy whipping cream 
  • green food coloring
  • shredded coconut 
  • royal icing bunny feet transfers
  • large star tip
  • large round tip 
  • 2 piping bags

Directions 

  • In a standing mixer, combine butter, powder sugar, vanilla, heavy whipping cream, and powder sugar.
  • Mix until stiff peaks form
  • Split into two bowls, add green food coloring into one bowl. 
  • Scoop the green frosting fitted with the star tip and set aside
  • Scoop the regular frosting into the bag fitted with the round tip
  • Using the round tip, pipe a circle in the middle of the cupcake to make a “Tail” 
  • Dip the cupcake into the shredded coconut 
  • Using the green frosting pipe “grass” around the tail
  • Place two bunny feet on the side’s of the tail
