Ingredients

  • 2 tubes refrigerated cinnamon rolls {12.4 ounce/8 count each}
  • pink food color {optional}

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°.
  • Remove the cinnamon rolls and frosting from both tubes. Set the frosting aside. Begin by taking 1 cinnamon roll and placing it about 2/3 of the way down a baking sheet. Then take 7 more rolls {that are unrolled} and roll them around the first one to create a large spiral circle of cinnamon rolls.
  • Once the face is finished take two rolls and create two large triangles. Take another 1 and half rolls and fill in the triangle. Place them on the top half of the baking sheet, touching the bunny head. To get the ears attached to the head, take the remaining 2 rolls and place a roll {starting on the inside of each ear} around the ear and down onto the face. Tuck the end section under the large swirl and repeat with the other ear.
  • Bake for 17-19 minutes. While the cinnamon roll is baking, divide the frosting between two bowls. Add 1 and ¾ of the frosting in one bowl and the remaining ¼ in another bowl. Add a drop of pink food coloring to the bowl with the smaller amount of frosting.
  • Once browned and cooked through, remove from the oven. Allow the cinnamon roll bunny to cool for 3-4 minutes. Then take the white frosting and spread it onto the entire head and the outside of each ear. Then take the pink frosting and fill in the middle of each ear. Serve and enjoy. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

Notes

  • Be sure to purchase the refrigerated cinnamon rolls that are one long piece of dough when unrolled and not a large disc. Some refrigerated rolls are a biscuit with cinnamon sugar and will not work for this recipe.
  • Divide the rolls once you remove them from the package. You will need 8 for the ears and 8 for the bunny head.
  • Allow the cinnamon roll to cool for 3-4 minutes before adding the frosting. If you add it too soon the frosting will melt into the cinnamon roll and not stay on top.
  • To serve, cut the bunny head like a pizza and the ears into thirds. This giant cinnamon roll is big enough to feed 8 people.
