Equipment

Ingredients

For the Cookie Base:

  • 1 box white cake mix (dry)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil

For Decorating the Cookies:

  • pink sanding sugar
  • 24 large marshmallows
  • 2 cups white frosting (store bought, or homemade)
  • 1 package candy eyes
  • 24 pink sixlets (can sub m&ms)
  • pink jimmie sprinkles

Instructions

For the Cookie Base:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone liner, and set it aside.
  • Add the cake mix, eggs and vegetable oil to a large bowl. Stir them together with a rubber spatula until they are completely combined.
  • Scoop the cookie dough into balls, about 1 to 1.5 TBS each, and roll them into balls. Place them each onto the prepared cookie sheet, a couple inches apart.
  • Bake the cookies for about 8-10 minutes, or until the tops are crinkly.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for about 5 minutes on the cookie sheet, then transfer them to a cooling rack to cool completely.

For Decorating the Cookies:

  • Spread the sparkling sugar into a shallow bowl or plate.
  • Cut each marshmallow in half diagonally.
  • Dip the sticky middle of each marshmallow into the sparkling sugar. Repeat with additional marshmallows and set them aside.
  • Spread frosting evenly over the top of each cookie.
  • Add two marshmallow bunny ears on to the top of a cookie for ears.
  • Add two candy eyes to the bunny cookies, below the ears.
  • Add a sixlet below and between the eyes for a nose.
  • Arrange four jimmie sprinkles around the candy nose to make whiskers.
  • Repeat steps 9 through 13 on each cookie.
  • Allow frosting to set and serve!
