Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Easter Bunny Cake
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, and milk, blending with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes until smooth and well combined. Optionally, add vanilla extract.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while you prepare your baking pans. Grease two 9-inch round cake pans and pour equal portions of the batter into each pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes.
  3. Once your cakes are baked, let them cool in the pans for about 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edges and invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  4. When the cakes are fully cooled, cut one cake in half horizontally. Place the intact cake on a serving platter, using the cut half for the ears.
  5. Spread a generous layer of frosting over the entire cake, then sprinkle coconut flakes on top and decorate with colorful candy.
