Template for the Hanging Easter Bunny Cookie Set

To help with the decorating process, I made a PDF template of all the designs of this year's Easter cookie collection, including this Easter Bunny cookie set design.

If you have a Kopykake or Pico projector, just print it out (or pull it up on your mobile device) and you are good to go. For those without a projector, follow the suggested steps below by tracing the design onto the cookie with an edible food marker.

The Cookie Decorating Process

For this Easter bunny cookies, you will need the following suggested colors:

Step 1

Starting with the head cookie, begin by filling in the pink inner sections of the ears. Let that icing crust over.

Then fill in the head section around the eye holes with white icing, as shown. Let this icing set for an hour.

Step 2

Next, fill in the outer parts of the ears with white icing.

Then add the facial details, like the eyes, the nose, and the eyebrows.

Step 3

For the middle plaque sign cookie, flood the entire cookie with the color of your choice. I used turquoise blue icing. Let this icing set for an hour.

Once the icing sets, add the two white paw circles at the top, as shown.

Step 4

Add the name of choice. I used a cookie projector to add the names to my cookies.

For the finger lines, I draw them on with a silver food pen.

Step 5

For the bunny tail cookies, start by flooding the entire cookie with white icing. Let that icing set for about an hour.

Then add the two feet on top of that icing.

Add the pink foot pads on top of the feet sections.
