Bunny Coconut Muffins

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 200 / 180 fan
2. Adults: Melt the butter in a microwavable bowl. Leave to cool slightly to ensure it is safe for little hands
3. Let your little bakers enjoy pouring the flour / baking powder / coconut and sugar into a large mixing bowl. Let them mix it well!
4. Help them to carefully pour in the melted butter and milk.
5. Mix until all the ingredients are combined.
6. Ask your little chef to place paper cases in the muffin tray and then help them to spoon the mixture into all 12 cases.
7. Pop into the oven for 18 minutes until golden and a cake tester / skewer comes out clean.
8. Meanwhile, combine the cream cheese, icing sugar and whisk well until smooth and slightly thickened.
9. Using kitchen scissors, cut 6 marshmallows diagonally in half. Show your little helpers how to place the sticky side (inside) of the marshmallow onto a plate of pink shimmer sugar. These will form the bunny ears. Pinch them slightly at the top to make them more pointy!
10. Pour some desiccated coconut into a wide bowl or plate.
11. Once the cakes have cooled, let your little chefs drizzle the icing over the cake and then turn each one upside down and twist it gently onto the desiccated coconut.
12. Then use a dab of icing on the bottom of the marshmallow ears to secure them to the cakes.
13. Add the edible eyes and chocolate chip noses.
