# How to Make It:
01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, approximately 2-3 minutes.
03 - Add eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract until fully combined.
04 - In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
05 - Add half of the dry ingredient mixture to the butter mixture, followed by half of the milk. Repeat with remaining flour mixture and milk. Mix until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
06 - Divide batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each approximately two-thirds full.
07 - Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center emerges clean. Cool completely on a wire rack.
08 - Beat softened butter until creamy. Gradually add sifted powdered sugar while mixing. Add milk and vanilla extract, then beat until fluffy. Divide into portions and tint with food coloring as desired.
09 - Apply buttercream frosting generously to the top of each cooled cake using a piping bag or spatula.
10 - Cut marshmallows in half lengthwise to create bunny ears. Attach to the top of each frosted cake. Place pink candies for noses, mini chocolate chips for eyes, and apply shredded coconut or green sprinkles for grass base.
11 - Arrange decorated cakes on a serving platter. Surround with additional shredded coconut or sprinkles for a festive presentation.
