You can use these cookies for Easter or a pretty spring brunch. They’re the cutest little bunny butt cookies!!

How long will the cookies last when refrigerated?

For a richer flavor, refrigerate the dough for at least one day and up to five.

Store decorated cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.

How adorable are these cookies??!! The kids are going to love these in their Easter baskets!

Here’s what you will need to make these delicious and beautiful cookies:

In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.

Beat in the egg and vanilla until combined. Then add the flour and salt, continue to beat until combined.

Sprinkle in the jimmies and mix with a spoon.

Cover and chill the dough for about an hour in the refrigerator.

Take the dough out of the fridge. Scoop enough dough out to make about 1.5-inch ball.

Roll out the ball with the palm of your hands until you have about an 8-inch rope.

The thicker the rope the less chance of it to break. The jimmies cause it to break

as well I noticed, so if that happens just pinch it back together.

Take the rope and crisscross it towards the bottom to make a circle then crisscross it again as you go up. Keep it tight. Leave the ends spread apart a bit, this will represent the bunny ears. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet.

Bake for 8-9 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.

Add a dollop of frosting to the “butt” of the bunny and a jelly bean for the tail.

They came out perfect and I love the Spring colors!

Make sure to share them with your friends and family!
