This Easter, I decided to do something a little special. We never really had dessert for this holiday except pie (which was like Thanksgiving and Christmas). So I decided to make dark chocolate cupcakes with Tootsie Roll bunnies. The process proved more daunting than anticipated, but I managed to pull it off, with a little help from my mom. I made twenty four cupcakes, and one little Tootsie Roll sheep. I used tooth picks and just a touch of water in order to assemble the little critters. Here are some pictures. For my sister, because she doesn't like any kind of icing, I sifted powdered sugar on the tops, like snow bunnies. I was going to use the flavored Tootsie Rolls to make carrots and easter eggs, but working every day up to Easter, I did not have enough time. And you get to enjoy all the left over Tootsie Rolls! I purchased 2 packs for this project.
