Tips from the

Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Dough should not be stretched too thin when rolling dough around candies, and openings should be completely sealed around candies before baking.
  • tip 2
    A great way to use up extra chocolate Easter candy is to substitute the candies with unwrapped chocolate eggs or even a tablespoon of chocolate chips. The chocolate eggs with candy shells do not work as well in this recipe.
  • tip 3
    Have fun with the kids and have them help “decorate” their bunnies before baking.
