Creating the Perfect Easter Bunny Pound Cake
Gather Your Ingredients
To start off, you will need all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, butter, sugar, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract. You can also add in some lemon zest for an extra burst of flavor. Make sure to have all your ingredients measured and ready to go before starting.
Prepare the Batter
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Then, add in the eggs one at a time, making sure to fully incorporate each one before adding the next. Next, mix in the milk and vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
Baking and Assembling the Cake
Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan. Pour the batter into the greased pan and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before removing it from the pan.
Now comes the fun part - decorating the cake! Cut the cooled cake into two equal halves and trim the tops to make them level. Place one half on a serving platter and spread a layer of frosting on top. Place the other half on top and cover the entire cake with frosting. To create the bunny design, use shredded coconut for the fur, chocolate chips for the eyes, and pink frosting for the nose and ears. Get creative and have fun with it!
