Easter Treats With Easter coming up, I wanted to add a few special Easter treats that have always been my favorites.
Chocolate Easter Nests These have been a favorite Easter treat of mine for as long as I can remember. I loved helping mom put jelly beans in these for the "eggs." I'm really looking forward to making these with my daughter this year. She's at a fun age to be able to "help" (and by help I mean eating as many "eggs" as I did as a kid!) 1 box shredded wheat cereal (10-12 biscuits) Crush the biscuits so they are fairly fine. Melt chips in microwave until soft. Add peanut butter to melted chocolate. Mix and add the shredded wheat. Put mixture by tablespoon on a piece of waxed paper. Shape each into a nest. Chill. This is absolutely the easiest bunny cake I have ever found. It is tasty, very simple to make, and makes a very cute bunny. I made this for my daughter’s very first Easter and she absolutely loved it. Easter Bunny Cake This is absolutely the easiest bunny cake I have ever found. It is tasty, very simple to make, and makes a very cute bunny. I made this cake for my daughter's very first Easter. She was 10 months old at the time and full of mischief. Thankfully this is an easy cake to make so I was able to get it done in time even though I was chasing after my daughter every 10 minutes to make sure she didn't put something in her mouth she shouldn't be. I'm sure all you moms out there know what I mean! It comes to you thanks to Betty Crocker. I have put a link to the Betty Crocker page where you can find full instructions for this cake at the bottom of this recipe. They have very helpful diagrams that help walk you through the process. 1 package Betty Crocker Ò

carrot cake mix Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease the bottoms of two 9-inch round pans. Beat the cake mix, water, oil, and eggs with an electric mixer in a large bowl on low speed for 30 seconds. Increase it to medium speed and beat for two minutes. Pour batter into the pans. Bake for 22 to 27 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes and remove from pans. Allow cakes to cool completely, about one hour. Reserve one cake for another use or to make a second bunny. Cut one layer in half. Put the halves together with frosting to form the body. Place the cake upright on the cut side on top of a tray. Cut a notch about one-third of the way up one end of the body to form the head. Attach half of the cutout piece to the back of the bunny to form a tail. Frost the bunny. Sprinkle entire bunny with 1 cup of coconut. Cut the ears from construction paper and press into the notch at the top. Use jelly beans for the eyes and nose. Shake 1 cup of coconut and 3 drops of green food coloring in a tightly covered jar until it is evenly tinted. Surround the bunny with the tinted coconut. Add additional jelly beans for more color. Tips: I confess that I do not usually use the white frosting with this cake. I almost always use the cream cheese frosting instead. Just cannot seem to make myself put white frosting on a carrot cake. I also usually add in a few things to the cake mix, nuts and raisins, to add a little more texture and flavor.
