Honey Nut Shredded Wheat Bunnies

November 17, 2015 by caroline 3 Comments

Honey Nut Shredded Wheat Bunnies

Whether you have little people at home, or have little nephews and nieces popping round at Easter, I just think these little bunnies make a perfect lunch time, picnic treat or can be given as a gift! Now if you don’t have Honey Nut Shredded Wheat to make your bunnies, I am sure you could just substitute the regular Shredded Wheat in. Then make up as per the recipe but possibly drizzle with honey if required or sprinkle with sugar to sweeten? (or not).

Now if you won’t share, this recipe makes 6 bunnies, but you could just make one large bunny and have as your centre piece! Wow! But then you would have to share little bits of Easter bunny…

Honey Nut Shredded Wheat Bunnies

Servings 6

Ingredients

  • 350 g Honey Nut Shredded Wheat
  • 150 ml Condensed milk
  • 125 g Butter
  • 60 g Coconut
  • Currants
  • White Marshmallows
  • Equipment:
  • 1 Baking Sheet or board, lined with
  • greaseproof paper or tin foil.
  • 1 Plastic food bag and rolling pin to
  • crush cereal
  • 1 Microwavable Bowl
  • 1 Tablespoon 1 Teaspoon
  • For the large centrepiece bunny you will need extra licorice for whiskers!

Instructions

  • Place the Honey Nut Shredded Wheat in a plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin until broken into small pieces, do not make the pieces too fine, we want to make this crunchy! Place crushed cereal into a bowl.
  • Place the butter and condensed milk into a microwavable bowl, and heat on medium until melted, mix together until combined, and add to cereal.
  • Then add the coconut and mix well. Leave to cool.
  • Using a tablespoon, form mixture onto the spoon to make 6 large ball shapes, and slide out from the spoon onto prepared baking sheet.
  • Now, using the teaspoon make 6 smaller ball shapes. Mould the small
  • ball onto the large ball, to form a bunny shape. Pinch the small ball to make 2 upright ear shapes.
  • Press currants into the bunny head shape to form 2 eyes and a nose.
  • Chill for 1 hour until firm.
  • When firm, attach a marshmallow tail by dipping one side of the marshmallow into a little milk (use condensed if you have any left), and press firmly onto the bunny.

    Thanks 🙂 Did you also see the cute fluffy sheep or lambs that are made out of cheerios? Quite tricky to get them to stand up, but well worth the effort. Here’s the link here: https://lunchboxworld.co.uk/cheerios-fluffy-sheep/
