Easter bunny biscuits are a delightful treat perfect for celebrating the spring season. These biscuits are not only cute and festive but also delicious, combining the rich flavors of butter, sugar, and white chocolate.

Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer or a hand whisk, cream together the softened butter and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose white wheat flour.
- Gradually add the sifted flour into the wet mixture, mixing until the dough starts to come together. You may need to use your hands towards the end to form a smooth dough.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness.
- Use bunny-shaped cookie cutters to cut out shapes from the rolled dough. Alternatively, you can shape the dough into small circles by hand.
- Carefully transfer the biscuit shapes to the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small space between each one to allow for spreading.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-baking.
- Once baked, remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the biscuits are cooling, melt the white chocolate using a double boiler or microwave method:
- Double Boiler Method: Place white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water (make sure the bowl does not touch the water). Stir continuously until melted.
- Microwave Method: Place the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval until completely melted and smooth.
- Once the biscuits are completely cooled, dip them halfway into the melted white chocolate or use a spoon to drizzle the chocolate over them.
- Place the decorated biscuits back onto the parchment paper to set. If desired, you can add sprinkles or edible decorations while the chocolate is still wet.
- Allow the white chocolate to set completely before serving.
- Store the biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
Tips:
- Ensure that your butter is at room temperature before you start. This will make it easier to mix with the other ingredients.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help the biscuits maintain their shape while baking.
- Use a bunny-shaped cookie cutter to give your biscuits that perfect festive look.
- When melting white chocolate, use a double boiler or microwave in short increments to prevent burning.
- For added decoration, consider using edible glitter, colored sugar, or icing to make your bunnies more festive.
- Always preheat your oven to ensure even baking. Typically, 350°F (175°C) works well for these types of biscuits.
Creating Easter bunny biscuits is as enjoyable as it is rewarding. Following these steps and tips will help you bake perfectly festive biscuits that everyone will love. Enjoy your adorable and tasty Easter treats!
