Bunny feet cookies are quick and clever thanks to using a package of Nutter Butter cookies and colored candy or chocolate melts.
Jump to:
These are easy treats to make for Easter and great for children to help with.
You're just melting colored candy wafers and dipping Nutter Butters into the melted candy.
You'll melt the white wafers first, put them on a sheet of wax paper to dry then melt the pink wafers to add sweet little pink pads on the bunny feet!
If you're looking for Easter themed treats, consider birds nest cookies with Golden Graham cereal, or shredded wheat Easter nests. More involved treats but still spring themed, Easter Bunny Sugar Cookies or Easter Egg Cookies with Royal Icing. But you could also make an easy drop cookie dough with mini chocolate Cadbury easter eggs.
Bunny Feet Cookie Ingredients
- 14 Nutter Butter cookies
- 7 Ounces white melting wafers
- 2 Ounces pink melting wafers
- 2 ounces brown melting wafers (optional for making patches)
Equipment Needed
- Microwave safe mixing bowl (for melting the wafers)
- Baking sheet (to line with wax paper for letting the cookies set)
- Dipping forks (you can use a regular fork but having a proper dipping fork, which is longer and has special prongs especially for dipping and draining the excess melted candy from the cookie.)
- Wax paper
How to Make Bunny Feet Cookies
Melt the white candy melts (you can also use almond bark) in a clean, microwave safe bowl.
Heat in 15 to 30 second increments depending on the power of your microwave.
Candy melts were designed to be melted so you shouldn't have too much trouble but still take the same precautions as if you were melting chocolate.
Make sure the bowl you're using is clean and dry--water, even a drop, will cause candy melts to seize.
Scrape the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula thoroughly, which will help prevent hot spots in the chocolate melts.
Dip each Nutter Butter in the chocolate using a fork.
You can make a mixture of single bunny feet or attached bunny feet using two peanut butter cookies adhesed together with chocolate.
Once the white candy coating has set up, melt the pink candy melts and put the melted candy into a resealable container or a piping bag with a snip cut off in the corner to make pink bunny pads.

3-Ingredient Bunny Feet Cookies
Make sweet little bunny feet cookies with packaged peanut butter cookies and candy melts.
Ingredients
- 14 Nutter Butters
- 7 Ounces White Melting Chocolate
- 2 Ounces Pink Melting Chocolate
Instructions
-Melt the white melting chocolates in a microwave safe bowl. Heat the chocolates in 30 second intervals, stirring in between each time until its melted and smooth.
-Dip a Nutter Butter in the melted chocolate, let the excess candy drip off the cookie and place it on wax paper to dry.
-To make the attached bunny feet, dip a second Nutter Butter in the chocolate, scrape off some of the excess chocolate and then put it on the top half of the first nutter butter so they are touching.
-Repeat this step for each Nutter Butter that you want connected.
-Place the connected and single covered Nutter Butters in the fridge for 10 minutes to solidify.
-If the connection between the two Nutter Butters are not strong enough for them to stay together. Warm the white chocolate and dip them in the chocolate again.
-Heat the pink melting chocolate following the same steps as above, then put the pink chocolate in a piping bag and cut a small hole in the tip.
-Use the pink chocolate to pipe one large oblong shape at the top of each Nutter Butter.
-Next pipe 3 small circles at the bottom of the Nutter Butters to resemble the bottom of a bunny’s paw. Repeat the same process for the connected bunny feet, just create a half circle at the top portion of the bottom connected foot.
-Let the Nutter Butter bunny feet dry on the wax paper.
serve and enjoy!
