    List of Ingredients




    Funny Bunny Cookies


    • 1 18-ounce package refrigerated cookie dough
    • Yellow and orange food coloring
    • 1 16-ounce container white frosting
    • 1 bag STARBURST® FUN SIZE® Fruit Chews for Easter, unwrapped
    • 1 bag M&M'S® Brand Chocolate Candies for Easter
    • 1 tube or bag M&M'S® Brand MINIS® (optional for the bunny's basket)

    Recipe





    Thinly roll the cookie dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Press out two sizes of cookies: 3-inch cookies for the bunnies' bodies, and 1-inch cookies for the bunnies' heads.

    Arrange the cookies on a baking sheet, placing the smaller cookies next to the larger cookies. Press the edges of the two sets of cookies together. Bake them in a preheated 350-degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes, then cool.

    Divide the icing into 3 small bowls. Tint one bowl with a few drops of the orange food coloring and one with the yellow. Frost 1/3 of the cookies orange, 1/3 of them yellow and 1/3 of them white.

    Soften the STARBURST® candies in the microwave for 10 seconds. Mold the candy into bunny ears and feet, then press them into the iced cookies to attach them. Dot the bunnies' faces with M&M'S® Brand Chocolate Candies for Easter for the eyes, noses and mouths.

    For the bunny's basket: Soften one unwrapped STARBURST® Candy in your hand (or for 5 seconds in the microwave) and divide the piece into two equal parts. Shape half of the STARBURST® Candy into a 1-1/2 inch handle.
    Shape the other half into a semi-circle for the basket body. Make diagonal marks across the semi-circle with the tip of a knife. Press the rope into the two outside edges of the semi-circle, making a basket. Place the basket on the frosted cookie and fill the basket with several M&M'S® Brand MINIS®.

    For the bunny's carrot: Soften one unwrapped, orange STARBURST® Candy in your hand (or for 5 seconds in the microwave) and shape it into a 1 inch long cone to resemble a carrot. For the carrot top, soften a piece of green STARBURST® Candy in the same way, then flatten it and cut it into spiky fronds. Press to attach them to the carrot and put the carrot on the cookie.

    Makes 18 bunnies.
