Ingredients:

• 7 Tbsp butter, softened
• 1 cup sugar
• 3/4 cup milk
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 2 cups sifted cake flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 2 large egg whites
• Icing:
• 1 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 2 Tbsp water
• Optional: coconut, food coloring for decorating, candies

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 375° F. Prepare 3D Bunny Pan with baking spray that contains flour.
• Using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, cream the sugar and butter until fluffy.
• Add milk and vanilla. In a separate bowl, combine sifted flour and baking powder.
• Add flour mixture in three parts to the butter mixture until incorporated. Beat egg whites until stiff and fold into batter.
• Pour prepared batter in bottom half of bunny mold (approximately 3 cups).
• Place top of mold over bottom half, interlocking seams. (Top half has vent holes to allow steam to escape.)
• Place mold on cookie sheet and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until cake tests done. (Test with toothpick through vent hole.)
• Mix icing ingredients together until desired consistency is reached.
• Remove mold from oven and cool 5 minutes. Invert mold onto cooling rack before standing in upright position.
• Trim bottom of cake if surface is not flat. Place a dab of icing on plate and stand mold in upright position.
• Brush on icing and decorate as desired with coconut, colored icing, or candies.
