Looking for fun ways to spend time with your


kids this Easter? Dr. Oetker has everything you


need to sprinkle the joy of baking in your kitchen


Bake it


Bunny hug biscuits
MAKES 32!PREP 30 mins
COOK 25 mins!EASY

250g unsalted butter, softened
250g golden caster sugar
1 tsp Dr. Oetker Baking Powder
400g plain flour
1 medium egg, lightly beaten
2 tsp Dr. Oetker Vanilla Extract
32 mini chocolate eggs
75g Dr. Oetker Fine Cooks
White Chocolate
Dr. Oetker Mini Wafer Flowers
Dr. Oetker Bright & Bold Sprinkle Mix

1 Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5.
Line two large flat baking trays with
parchment paper. In a large bowl, beat
the butter and sugar for about 3 mins,
until smooth and creamy. Sift the baking
powder, a pinch of salt and the flour into
a separate bowl and set aside. Slowly
whisk the egg and vanilla into the butter
mixture, then add the dry ingredients,
a little at a time. The dough will become
very stiff – if it becomes too stiff for you
to mix, turn out onto a work surface and
knead by hand.
2 Divide the dough into 2 batches, then
cover the remaining dough while you roll
one portion out onto a floured surface
until about 5mm thick. Cut out the
biscuits using a gingerbread cutter
(upside down to make bunnies), then
transfer to the baking trays, spacing
each at least 2cm apart. Place a mini egg
in the centre of each bunny and place the
arms around the edges of the egg (they
won’t wrap around completely). Use a
cocktail stick to poke the eyes and nose.
3 Bake for 6-8 mins, then allow to cool on
the tray until firm enough to transfer to
a cooling rack. Repeat with the second
batch of dough.
4 Melt the white chocolate in the
microwave in 30 sec bursts until smooth,
then carefully dip each bunny’s ears into
the chocolate and finish with a wafer
flower and a few of the sprinkles.
