Bunny Ears Cupcakes

For the bunny ears cupcakes, first line the cavities of a muffin tin with paper cups or grease and flour them. Preheat the oven to 180 °C.

Melt the butter and let it cool down a bit. Mix it with the milk and the sugar. Finally, whisk the eggs and stir them in as well. In another bowl, mix the sifted flour with the baking soda and cocoa.

Gently mix both mixtures until all ingredients are moistened. Then immediately pour into the muffin tins, place in the oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes. Then remove and let cool.

For the bunny ears, thinly peel the apples in strips as long as possible. Sprinkle the peels with a little lemon juice, if desired. Cut ears out of the peels. Dip in the chocolate and refrigerate to dry.

For the chocolate frosting, heat the whipping cream and melt the chocolate in it. Leave to cool in the refrigerator.

Meanwhile, whip the powdered sugar with the egg whites and stir in the green food paste. Pour into a piping bag fitted with a grass nozzle.

When the cupcakes and chocolate whipped cream mixture have cooled, first whip the chocolate frosting with a mixer until creamy. Pour into a piping bag and pipe onto the cupcakes. If necessary, chill again briefly so that the mixture becomes firmer.

Then pipe the grass on top. Insert the bunny ears and decorate the sugar flowers and the marzipan carrot nicely on the bunny ears cupcakes.

Preparation Tip:

The bunny ears cupcakes are a real eye-catcher for Easter!
