It is officially the first day of Spring and I am pretty excited about it. Cue the fluffy animals and all things floral. And carrot cake, I can’t say no to carrot cake! Luckily, spring is the perfect season for it! Why not combine the fluffy woodland creatures and your love of carrot cake with these cute bunny borough cakes and let your stomach say hello to Spring in proper fashion? Boy, that was a wordy sentence. It will take you longer to read that sentence than it will to make this easy Easter dessert!

The other day I was walking the dollar aisle of a certain store with a cute doggy mascot when I found a pretty little pink dessert stand. I knew it was meant to be–after all, I had recently had two of my dessert stands break so obviously I needed a new one, right?!

Once I had that little treasure tucked into my cart it seemed only fitting to make something to show off on it. All of the Easter candy was calling my name, so I picked up some marshmallow bunny Peeps with a plan in mind. Awhile ago I had purchased a mini Bundt pan that I still hadn’t had a chance to use. I figured the perfect easy Easter dessert could be made by combining the Peeps I bought with these mini carrot Bundt cakes!Â

These bunny borough cakes are such a cinch to make and so fun for your kids (or you, just being honest) to eat, all you have to do is make your cakes with any of your favorite homemade or store-bought cake mixes (but carrot cake does seem the most fitting for a bunny burrow, don’t you think?). If you don’t have a mini Bundt pan you could also make cupcakes and cut out a small indentation in the middle for your little marshmallow bunny to sit in.

The next step is to pipe some green grass around the rim of your rabbit hole. I used cream cheese frosting because in my opinion carrot cake has to have cream cheese frosting. Then, place your marshmallow bunny in the middle to appear as if he’s peeping out of his borough. I also sprinkled some carrot cake crumbs around like dirt clods. But tastier, wink wink.Â
Where do you stand on bunny marshmallow Peeps? My husband is not a fan, but my kiddos can’t get enough!
