5+ Festive ways to use Chocolate Rabbits for Easter

It all started during Easter years ago.

My kids received so many adorable chocolate bunnies 

that I thought, 

there has to be something more to do with them besides nibble off the ears.

Bunny Milk became a fun tradition that we still look forward to.

It seems as though chocolate rabbits are multiplying more than ever.

The Easter aisles at every store are stocked with all shapes and sizes.

Here are a few more festively easy ways to celebrate with them.

Let's get the Easter Parade started!

Easter Bunny Bonnets

I dare you not to smile at these

fresh flower and succulent hats...

Simply use a skewer to make a stem-sized hole
and adorn with a tiny succulent...

or any other snippets from the garden.

They are the perfect touch of whimsy

for centerpiece or place setting.

Don't they look proud?!

On our Easter Menu...

Stuffed Rabbit - 2 ways

For a sweet surprise, 

make a hole in the back and fill with candy...

Or what my teenagers prefer...

Bunny Money

Rabbit Stew

All the fixings for a Spring stew make a silly hostess gift...

The ingredients include:

a pastel colander, filled with colorful tiny potatoes, fresh veggie seeds...

and one gorgeous dark chocolate rabbit.

For dessert we're serving...

Baked Rabbit (Bunny S'mores)

Small chocolate covered marshmallow bunnies...

are nestled in between graham crackers 

and baked at 350 degrees for 10 minutes...

I like mine well done!

And a decadent Chocolate Martini with a tiny bunny floater becomes a

Rabbit-ini

Cheers Big Ears, 

Happy Easter!

Easter Cinnamon Rolls

Your hunt for an easy Easter breakfast treat is over!

Cinnamon Egg Rolls could't be simpler or more festive...

All you need is a tube of store bought cinnamon rolls and a mini-muffin tin...

unroll and cut into approximately 4 inch strips...

then re-roll and place in buttered pan...

bake at 350 degrees for about 14 minutes...

glaze with enclosed frosting...

then allow to cool slightly before placing them in a sterilized plastic egg.

I promise you, you'll need to make them by the dozen!

Cottontail Rings - The perfect Easter Accessory

I have an Easter fashion announcement to make...
cocktail rings are out, cottontail rings are in!

You can make this adorable accessory in seconds and be the envy of all your peeps.

All you need are rings from the jewelry making section of most craft stores, 

pom poms, cut out bunny ears 

(mine are from a paper punch but you can easily cut out ears from cardstock) and super glue.

My pom poms came with adhesive attached,

 but you can also use the super glue to attach to the ring...

Then attach ears with glue, holding them in place for a minute until it is well adhered...

Let dry well and you are ready for the Easter Parade.

And if you haven't had enough bunny love,  

you can perfectly compliment your ring with these

simple wine glass decorations here.

March Madness Easter Basket

March Madness is in full swing and Easter is this Sunday,

what better way to combine the two than with

Easter Basket-ball!

This simple, silly Easter Basket is sure to be a slam dunk.
A small toy hoop tied onto the handle,
the filled with bunny eared, basketball eggs...

and I pumped up the balls this year with just a little Bunny Money!

Fresh Herb Easter Eggs

I can't believe Easter is almost a week away...

I better hop to it!

Bunnies and Eggs are a must and 

 I'm keeping them fresh and simple with a strategic touch of herbs...

Snips of sage for the ears...

and clipping of chives for the whiskers...

You'd be hard pressed boiled to find an easier dish to serve at brunch!

A few fun ways to give Peeps

Whether you like to eat them or not, 

you have to admit Peeps are adorable.

Nothing is more fun at Easter than picking up a pack for a sweet and silly gift.

You can give Peeps in Jeeps...

Peeps who sleep...

Hang out with Peeps while you steep...

or cuddle up with Peeps and sheep...

This Peep says, 

"Beep Beep, Easter is on it's way!"
