🔪 How to Make Bunny Butt Dip
Making this dip couldn’t be easier. It’s mostly just a matter of mixing and forming the shapes. Anyone can do it!
Step 1: Make the Dip
Combine the cream cheese, white chocolate chips, sprinkles, cake mix, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl.
Step 2: Roll into Balls
Separate the cream cheese mixture into a large ball, 2 medium balls, and 1 small ball. The large ball will be the body, the 2 medium balls will be the feet, and the small ball is, of course, the bunny tail!
Step 3: Coat with Chocolate
Roll each shaped ball in the shaved white chocolate to coat.
Step 4: Make the Bunny Butt
Place the large ball on a plate. Then, press the two medium balls onto the bottom of the large ball to make feet. Finally, add the small ball to the top of the large ball to make the tail. Flatten the feet gently to make the more realistic, then place four M&Ms on each one to make the bunny paws.
Step 5: Serve
Chill until ready to serve, then serve with cookies and pretzels of your choice. Yum!
How to treat raw flour or cake mix
Although some people aren’t worried about eating raw flour, it’s NOT recommended and never a good idea in my book. Killing the bacteria is simple by heating-treating the flour or cake mix. This is totally up to you but I think it’s a good idea to do this easy step.
For the microwave… A good rule of thumb to follow is to microwave the flour or cake mix for 1 minute and 15 seconds on high, stirring after 15 second intervals. Then go on with the recipe. So simple and safe!
