Bunny Rolls

Bunny Cookies from juznie


A couple of days ago I saw this picture and fell in love.  At first I thought they were rolls, but I later figured out that they were cookies with a lemon filling.  Sadly, I have yet to find a recipe.  But I do think it would be fun to use this as a model for some bunny rolls.  Although, they really are almost too cute to eat.

But if you are in the market for some cute bunny rolls, here are a couple that I have found.  Taste of Home has a recipe for these Easter Bunny dinner rolls, although I am sure the bunny making method would work with your favorite roll recipe as well.


Gluesticks has a recipe for cinnamon bunny rolls.  I think this is the bunny we will try to make, but just in dinner roll form.  


Something like these bunny buns (which is exactly what I will be calling them at Easter dinner because it will make my 3-year-old giggle) from Rhodes.


What bunny buns will you be serving at your house?

Oh my, how cute is THAT!!!!
Loving all of them. Just saved the link so I can make some this Easter ... just have to decide which ones ... Hard one! :-)

I don't have the time to make bread from scratch, but these would be super easy to make with crescent roll dough. Just roll each piece into a long thin tube and twist them up!

This is what I found out about them.
"The filling is grapefruit, according to the packaging. : )
From this store: www.kitchoan.com/?page_id=7
It's a Japanese product; it's limited during the moon festival time."
So it looks like no recipe to get.

I love this, thank you! I too pinned the bunny pic, and was disappointed there were no directions. Your research and ideas are very much appreciated.

Btw, I came across your blog googling "bunny rolls"... now to check out your blog!

Thanks again. :D

Had an idea for the bunny rolls...if you took those freezer rolls that are in a ball shape, let them thaw, then took a pair of scissors and snipped the ears so they were standing out from the roll a bit. Then, you could take an edible marker and put the eyes on after they baked!

These bunnies are often made of pineapple tarts. One set of directions with the recipes for the dough and the filling can be found here: http://sliceofcake.deviantart.com/journal/Chinese-New-Year-Pineapple-Tarts-221487200#

Hope this helps!

I tried bunny rolls, but they just came out looking mostly like gremlins! LOL. http://homeinawoods.wordpress.com

The recipe I have for these cookies actually uses yeast, so it's not a sugar cookie at all. More like a blintz.
2-1/2 to 3 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons butter
1 egg
Put the butter, the sour cream and water in a small saucepan and heat, but do not cook. Cool to tepid then add the remaining ingredients. Put in a kneader. If thick add more water.
Let it rise double and cut into 16 equal parts.
Baking tray lined with baking paper and cut the ears with scissors.
You might use currants for eyes.
Bake at 375° for about 10 minutes or until golden brown.

Here's a link (Hungarian, with translation) to the cookies. I'm going to try them and hope that the conversion works. http://ancikonyha.blogspot.hu/2013/02/citromos-teasuti-lemon-cookies-for-tea.html

I found a recipe on the lemon bunny cookies through a bunch of research on the internet.

I posted about them on my blog here:

Bunny buns - Remors and Myths

Take a look, let me know if you try these I would love a picture.
