Ingredients

  • Box cake mix (and ingredients called for on box)
  • Food coloring
  • Frosting (homemade or store-bought)
  • Bunny Peeps in assorted colors
  • Jelly beans, candy-coated chocolate eggs, or any other cake decorations you desire!
Directions
  • Mix and bake cake as directed on box.
  • Separate batter to make two 8" or 9" round cakes.
  • Color each layer of cake with food coloring (we did one blue and one green).
  • Bake cake as directed and let cool.
  • Layer cakes on top of each other with a layer of frosting in-between. (You may need to cut off the top of the bottom layer so the top one lays flat.)

  • Cover entire cake with frosting.
  • Place alternating colored Peeps around the sides of cake.

  • Decorate top of cake with remaining candy treats.
  • Enjoy!
