Ingredients
- 1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix
- 3 3/4 cups flaked coconut
- 1 (16 ounce) container vanilla frosting - I actually use 2
- 30 gumdrops
- 4 black licorice strips
- red food colouring
Directions
- Heat oven and prepare two 9 inch round baking pans as directed on cake box. Prepare cake batter as directed on package. Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake and cool cake as directed on package.
- When cooled, place one whole 9 inch cake layer on large serving tray (or large piece of cardboard covered with foil), forming the bunny's head. Cut 2 convex shaped ears from each side of the second layer, place on each side of head to form ears, as above. Use concave shaped piece for the bow tie, place about 1/2 inch below head.
- Frost entire bunny covering top and sides of bunny. Pat 3¾ cup coconut evenly over top and sides. Dye some of the coconut pink for the middle of the ears using a small amount of red food dye. Decorate the bunny face and bow tie with gumdrops and use the licorice to make whiskers and mouth.
A fun project for the whole family!!!
