- Have your child stick two halves in the icing at the top of each cupcake to create the ears.
- Let her put chocolate chip eyes on.
- Put on a jelly bean nose.
- This step is all you! Use a pair of clean tweezers to pick up sprinkles and create whiskers on the Bunny Cupcakes.
- Have your child help you make a smile with the sprinkles.
- Help your child outline the edge of the marshmallow ears with white gel icing so the pink shows through the middle.
Now you can share your cupcakes with the entire family. Happy Easter!
