Well Spring is here and Easter is fast approaching!
I was asked to make just a few cookies for some Easter baskets. I wanted to keep the design simple, since I knew I wouldn't have a lot of time to devote to the decorating.
Anytime I make Easter cookies, you can bet your bottom dollar some of them will be Rabbits, if not all of them. I am a big fan of the bunny rabbit, so anytime I can incorporate them into something I will.
I decided to go classic Easter with just bunnies and carrots. I started off by baking the delicious treats.

Ta Da! |
Once they were cooled and ready to decorate. I decided on a few pastel colors that would be perfect for Easter.
|
Pastel Royal Icing |
Now the decorating begins.
|
Start with a plain cookie. |
|
Then add the icing border. |
|
Go ahead and fill in the cookie. |
|
Finally add the white dots. |
I did all of the pink rabbits, before moving on to the green ones.
|
Green icing filled in. |
|
With added white dots. | | | |

After finishing all of the rabbit cookies. I moved onto the carrots.
|
I started by filling in all of the green stems. |
|
Then I moved onto the orange of the carrot. |
I really wanted to keep all the colors of these cookies very soft and muted.
Once I was done with all of the carrot cookies, I added tails and bows to the rabbits for a final touch. Here is the final product! Not quite dry yet!
Happy Easter and Spring to everyone! May it be filled with nothing but good, delicious delights!
