Some Bunny Loves You

Call him a hare, rabbit, or bunny. But any way you fill him he’s an adorable Easter classic (even when eaten on a stick) I love the traditional design of this mold and the numerous uses of the finished bunnies. I plan to give some away as gifts and/or use as a table centerpiece.

1. Place chocolate in a microwaveable safe bowl. Microwave on high for 1 min. Stir. Microwave in 30 second increments, stirring in between, until chocolate is completely melted.

2. Pour melted chocolate into a squeeze bottle and fill candy mold half way. Tap gently against the counter to release any air bubbles.

3. Insert lollipop sticks and fill completely with chocolate. Tap lightly again.

4. Let rest 5 minutes at room temperature before placing on a flat surface in the freezer for ~20 minutes or until set.

5. Gently tap against the counter to release and tie ribbon bows to the base.
