Instructions

For the Cake

Preheat the oven to 180 C.

Measure all the ingredients into a large bowl.

Mix all of the ingredients using a electric whisk.

Pour the mixture into 2 non-stick 7 inch (18cm) tins.

Place them in the oven for 15-25 minutes, until golden brown.

Cool on a wire rack and repeat process to make a second cake.

How to arrange and decorate:

Use one cake as the bunny head.

From the second cake, cut 2 convex shaped ears from each side, placing them on each side of the head to form ears.

Use concave shaped piece for the bowtie, place about 1/2 inch below head.

Ice entire bunny covering top and sides.

Sprinkle 2/3 of your flaked coconut around ears, head and neck tie so that it is evenly over top and sides.

Place the remaining coconut into a resealable plastic bag. Add your two drops of red food colouring and begin to shake until the mixture begins to look pinkish.

Decorate the bunny face and bowtie with jellybeans, chocolate eggs and anything else you wish. The more creative the better!
