BUNNY PATCH DESSERT

It is funny, now that I have kids I am always finding dorky and yet cute recipes that I think would be fun for them. Things I would not normally make for a room full of adults such as this Bunny Patch Dessert cake.  It is totally easy to assemble if you follow the recipe. You could also just make a plan boxed cake and then decorate it with the coconut/food coloring, marshmallow bunnies and jelly beans.  I would make this dessert for the kids and then have a beautiful carrot cake or cheesecake for the adults.  But how cute would this be on the Easter dessert table...all the kids would just love it!
