Easter Bunny Centerpiece
- 2 packages sugar cookie dough
- 2 teaspoons cherry extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- Decorating icings
- 8 short lollipop sticks
- Bunny cookie cutters
- 10 by 20-inch pieces thin foam
- Large tray or basket
- 10 by 20-inch piece wheat grass
- Colored Easter eggs
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, mix the sugar cookie dough with the cherry extract and 1/2 to 1 cup flour to make a very firm cookie dough.
- Roll out the dough to 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick.
- It has to be very thick for the lollipop sticks to stay in once baked.
- Cut out bunny shapes and insert lollipop sticks.
- You should get about 8 cookies, depending on the size of your cutter.
- Bake according to package directions (they will probably need a little longer as they will be MUCH thicker).
- Cool completely.
- Decorate with icings.
- Let the icing dry overnight.
- Place the foam in your large tray or basket.
- Top with the wheat grass.
- Insert the bunny cookies into the grass and foam.
