Bunny Rabbit Pancakes
This is something that would be a lot of fun to serve the kids on Easter morning. Can you imagine how delighted they could be when they find this on their plate? I found this on the Pillsbury site today. The recipe calls for using microwaveable pancakes, but you could easily make your own. However, Pillsbury pancakes are probably more uniform in size than ones like I make.
My husband and I made a bunny cake like this one year. It’s basically the same thing. You take two round cakes and cut one up to make the ears and the bow tie. That is also a fun thing to make for Easter.
