Happy Easter!

Children LOVE these darling Easter bunny cookie pops!  I made these and sold them as a fundraiser for my girls' preschool.  I was surprised at how fast they sold and how much everyone loved them.  The bright colors make them look cheery for the spring.

I used my favorite sugar cookie recipe and stiffened it up with additional flower.  After I cut out the cookies, I inserted a sucker stick and baked. When  the cookies were cool I used royal icing to pipe a dam around the entire cookie.  After the dam set up, I used a thinned royal icing to flood the center of the cookie.  I let this dry for 24 hours before adding all of the detail work. The ears required a dam of white icing before I could flood with color.  When the color was set, I piped additional details on the ears.

Happy Easter!
