Easter Bunny Biscuits

I found these delightful Easter Bunny Biscuits online by Sandra Shields! I must admit, I faked the recipe. I used Pillsbury frozen biscuits that had accidentally been thawed in the fridge! I pulled the dough apart and shaped the little bunnies by hand. Then I put chocolate chips on for eyes and nose.
After they came out of the oven, I gave them a glaze of white frosting, you know, real thin made of powdered sugar, vanilla and milk. Gary was in heaven when I took one to him in the laundry room. (Innkeepers spend alot of time in the laundry room)
I didn't get any whiskers on but they were too, too cute and yummy!




Bunny Biscuits

* 1 roll Pillsbury refrigerated Country Style biscuit dough
* Sliced almonds, dried cranberries, and currants

Separate the dough into 10 biscuit circles. One half of the circles will be for the bunny heads and the other half for the ears.

Cut the ear circles in half and attach to the top of the heads, shaping into ears. Decorate the heads with currant eyes, cranberry noses, and almond whiskers.

Bake at 190 C (375 F) for 11 to 13 minutes until lightly browned. Serve with strawberry jam.
