Instructions

  6. Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness on a lightly floured surface and cut out bunny shapes.

  8. Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before decorating.

Chill the dough for about 15 minutes if it’s too warm before rolling out. Keep an eye on the bake time to prevent overbaking.
