Easter Bunny Cookies

A couple of years ago, I saw a pin on Pinterest for bunny cookies. Using an oval-shaped cookie cutter, the cookies were transformed into little Easter bunnies.


Ingredients

Sugar cookie dough (pre-made is fine. However, I made mine from scratch)
Egg-shaped cookie cutter
Good n' Plenties (or pink lemonade Mike n' Ikes)
White icing/glaze (I made frosting using a recipe from a Wilton's cake decorating magazine)
Tube of white frosting for a plump firm tail (I just used the Wilton's frosting)
White sugar crystals (regular sugar is OK too)
Small tube of black icing (the one with small fine pointed tip - the store was out of black icing so I bought blue instead)

Directions

Roll out cookie dough. Press cookie cutter into dough to create oval shapes.  Arrange on greased cookie sheet and bake for 7 minutes at 350 degrees.

When warm, add icing to top with teaspoon, spreading evenly. Press two pink Good n' Plenties onto "head" of bunny for ears (in a "v" shape).

Make two small dots for eyes with black decorating icing.

Add tail using a circular motion to adhere a little round tail; and dust tail with sugar crystals.
