How To Make Your Bunny Cookies
Step 1- Make sure the cookies have cooled, and then flood them with the colored icing of your choice. For this, you may want to use a slightly stiffer icing as the sugar that will sand the cookies needs to stay on the surface. Allow the icing to dry for a minute, but not to set. This is the perfect time to add the sugar.
Step 2- Place the cookies on a shallow dish or a cookie sheet and shake the plain white sanding sugar over the cookies. The color of the icing will seep into the sugar. You won't need to worry about making colored icing. If any of the sugar gets stuck in the bowl, funnel it back into the rest of the sugar and reuse it.
Step 3- When the cookies have dried, pipe a bunny tail using the original stiff icing, but pipe it using a star tip.
Top Tip- When mixing the pastel colors for the icing, make sure to start with a base of white. Then, add a drop of the color you want to the white icing coloring and mix. This will allow you to have better control of the shade of pastel that is the base of your cookie's color.
