Step-by-step instructions for making biscuit
A cake in the form of a bunny is absolutely simple to execute: the main thing is to follow the instructions and not mix anything up.
- Step one: beat two eggs with sugar until lush foam is formed.
- Step two: without stopping interfering with the resulting mass, add condensed milk, mayonnaise and, in the last turn, baking powder and flour to it. The resulting dough should not be thick.
- Step three: divide the mass into two equal parts, grease a small rounded shape with butter and sprinkle with flour. Next, pour the dough into it and bake in the oven at a temperature of 200 degrees for 45-60 minutes. How dough is ready, you can check with a special wooden spoon.
- Fourth step: bake the second cake in the same way and let them cool.
Cream Creation
To prepare the cream for the cake "Bunny", you must perform the following steps:
- Step one: grind sugar, eggs, and flour until a homogeneous mass is formed.
- Step Two: Pour milk into them and mix thoroughly.
- Step three: cook the resulting consistency over low heat and cool to room temperature.
- Fourth step: put softened oil in the already cooled cream and beat thoroughly with a mixer.
The resulting consistency should be slightly lush.
Final assembly of the Bunny Cake
- Step one. First you need to cut the cakes. The first cake is cut into the trunk and forelegs, the second into the head and other parts (paws, ears and cheeks).
- Step Two Next, you need to collect a bunny, gluing the necessary parts with cream.
- Step Three The biscuit crumbs need to be mixed with cream and smeared all the cracks, giving the bunny cake the necessary shape.

They need to be beaten with a mixer, heating in a water bath, until a homogeneous mass is formed, and then applied to a bunny.
There are literally a couple of actions left: to give the animal an attractive shape (for example, using a fork) and make him eyes and nose. To do this, you need chocolate and mastic. A do-it-yourself bunny cake is ready! Enjoy your meal!
What to serve?
The cake can be consumed with any drinks, from lemonade to alcoholic drinks (if there are lovers of such a combination), however, it will be tastier and more appropriate to serve dessert along with hot tea or coffee.

The main thing is to approach its performance with a soul and put all the love and care into this cake, and then the grateful, shining eyes of the birthday person will be a reward for the hard work, though not the least.
