Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 (5 count) can of Jumbo or Grands! store-bought cinnamon rolls with icing
- Easter colored sprinkles, as needed for decoration
- Easter colored M&M’s, 15 pieces for eyes and nose (3 per bunny roll)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven according to the package directions on the canned cinnamon rolls or your recipe instructions.
- Shape Bunny Ears: Separate each cinnamon roll. Using your hands, gently pull the outer end of the roll upward and outward to form two ears. Press down between the ears and along their edges to secure them to the main round part of the roll. Place the shaped rolls on a baking sheet and reinforce the bunny shape if needed.
- Bake and Reinforce Shape: Bake the rolls as directed on the package. About halfway through baking, remove the tray carefully and use the handle of a spoon or your hands to gently reinforce the bunny ear shapes while they are warm.
- Finish Baking: Return the cinnamon rolls to the oven and bake until golden and cooked through according to package instructions.
- Decorate: Once baked, remove from the oven and while still warm, drizzle the rolls with the included icing. Sprinkle with colorful Easter sprinkles immediately and place two round candies for the eyes and one for the nose on each bunny roll.
- Serve: Allow to cool slightly, then serve and enjoy your festive Easter Bunny Cinnamon Rolls!
Notes
- Use jumbo cinnamon rolls for a clear bunny shape and ease of decorating.
- If the ears lose shape during baking, gently reshape them while warm with a spoon handle or fingers.
- Substitute Easter colored sprinkles and candies with any festive or seasonal decorations.
- Serve warm for best flavor and soft texture.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat gently before serving.
