We baked some yellow cupcakes and went to town with marshmallows and various candies. What started out as what-would-be-bunnies morphed into a menagerie of assorted marshmallow creatures:
Unicorn
Monkey with banana
Rocker with faux-hawk
Bunny a la Arthur
Chickadee in nest
Owl
Minimalist Bunny
Happy Cousins
BUNNY CUPCAKES

To make ears:
Take the marshmallow, cut it widthwise, and pinch it slightly at ends to created an oval ear. Dip the cut side in the sprinkling sugar.
To make whiskers:
Microwave Starburst candy for 11 seconds. On parchment paper, use a rolling pin and roll out the candy until flat. Using kitchen shears, cut into desired whisker lengths.
A+ for creativity! I'm liking the Rocker with the Faux-Hawk! Of course, the bunnies are super cute,too!
