Bunny Butt Sundae Cone Recipes

BUNNY BUTT SNICKERDOODLE COOKIES

Steps:

• Add the cookie dough to a medium bowl, then fold in the flour and 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon until well combined. Refrigerate until cold, about 10 minutes.
• Set aside 1/3 cup (about 1.6 ounces) of the dough for the tails. Cut the remaining dough into 8 equal pieces (about 1.8 ounces each). Roll each piece into a 9-inch-long rope, pressing a little harder on the ends to make them pointy (these will become the ears). Gather both ends of a rope and loosely twist the rope twice in the middle to create the bunny body, leaving an open loop at the bottom (the tail will go here) and separating the pointed ends at the top to look like ears. Transfer to an ungreased rimmed baking sheet and repeat with the remaining 7 ropes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Divide the reserved dough into 8 equal pieces (about 0.2 ounces each). Roll each piece into a ball and place into the loop of the bunny body. Freeze until very cold, about 20 minutes. Bake until the cookies are set and just turning golden on the bottoms, about 16 minutes. Transfer the bunnies to a wire rack to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, mix the confectioners' sugar, cream cheese and milk in a medium bowl until smooth. Mix the granulated sugar and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl. While the bunnies are still warm, brush all over with some of the cream-cheese glaze and sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar. Brush the tails with a little more glaze, then decorate with sprinkles. Let the bunnies cool completely, about 30 minutes. Serve any remaining glaze on the side for dipping.

BUNNY BUTT MARSHMALLOW POPS

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment, Put 4 1/2 ounces semisweet chocolate chips or wafers and 2 teaspoons shortening or coconut oil in a glass bowl and melt at 50 percent power in a microwave at 30 seconds intervals, stirring after each, until melted, about 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stick 12 yellow marshmallow bunnies (such as Peeps) onto 12 lollipop sticks. Dip the bunnies, one at a time, in the chocolate coating, spreading with a small spatula and tapping off the excess on the side of the bowl. Set the bunnies on the parchment-lined baking sheet and add halved mini marshmallows for tails. Refrigerate until set, about 20 minutes.
• Bunny face variation: Instead of the tail, add 2 small edible candy eyes. Attach a small orange jelly bean to each for a carrot. Halve small green jelly beans and snip the ends to resemble carrot tops and attach to the base of the carrot.

BUNNY BUTT SUNDAE CONE

Steps:

• Scoop vanilla ice cream into a flat-bottomed cake cone to come just past the rim. Press the top of the ice cream into crushed chocolate cookies. Secure the cone in a 3-ounce paper cup and freeze until firm, about 15 minutes. Place another scoop of ice cream on top of the crushed cookies. Snip a marshmallow in half crosswise and stretch to make an oval paw shape. Draw bunny paw pads on the smooth sides of the marshmallow pieces with a pink edible marker and stick to the ice cream. Pipe or top with a quarter-sized dollop of sweetened whipped cream between the feet for a bunny tail. Push 2 small oval shaped sandwich cookies (such as Mini Milanos) into the top of the ice cream scoop for bunny ears.
