Ingredients
Cupcakes
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 1.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Frosting
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2-3 tablespoon whole milk
Decorations
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 24 mini marshmallows
- 24 candy eyes
- 12 pink jelly beans
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with liners.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture.
- Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about ⅔ full. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely.
- For the frosting, beat the butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until combined. Stir in the vanilla and enough milk to reach the desired consistency.
- Frost the cooled cupcakes. Sprinkle shredded coconut on top for the bunny fur. Use mini marshmallows for the bunny ears, candy eyes, and pink jelly beans for the nose.
