Easter is only a couple weeks away and it’s time to start figuring out the menu for the big celebration! If you’re looking for a fun and adorable appetizer to share that both kids and adults will love, you need to make this Bunny Butt Funfetti Easter Cheese Ball.

It’s definitely not your typical cheese ball. This one is sweet and made with cake mix, sprinkles and white chocolate then shaped into a cute bunny butt!

Serve it alongside graham crackers or vanilla wafers.

HOW TO MAKE A BUNNY BUTT FUNFETTI EASTER CHEESE BALL

To make this super cute dessert you’ll need:

Cream cheese
Sprinkles
White chocolate chips
Funfetti cake mix
Vanilla extract
White chocolate
Pink M&Ms (I just picked the pink ones out of a bag of Easter M&Ms)
Vanilla wafers

Once you’ve gathered your ingredients, get ready to make this sweet treat!

Begin by adding the cream cheese, sprinkles, white chocolate chips, cake mix, and vanilla extract to a medium mixing bowl.

Begin separating your cheese ball mixture. You will need to make one large ball, two medium ones, and one small one.

After shaping each of the balls, roll them in the shaved white chocolate.

ASSEMBLING THE BUNNY BUTT

Use the large ball for the main bunny butt, the two medium size balls for the feet and the small one for the tail.
Carefully flatten the medium-sized balls out and shape them into feet.
Press four M&Ms into each of the feet as pictured below.

WHAT’S THE EASIEST WAY TO SOFTEN CREAM CHEESE?

The easiest way to soften cream cheese is to set it out on the counter an hour or so before you plan to make the cheese ball. This will allow you to easily blend the ingredients together.

If you’re running short on time, you can also use a microwave to soften cream cheese. Just warm the block of cheese in short intervals, watching it closely to ensure you’re just softening it rather than melting it.😉

DO I NEED TO USE FUNFETTI CAKE MIX?

No, you don’t have to use funfetti cake mix in this recipe. The funfetti mix makes the Easter cheese ball a bit more colorful and festive, but isn’t a necessity.

You can use any white or yellow cake mix that you’d like here. I don’t suggest using a chocolate cake mix as the details of the bunny butt will most likely be lost.

WHAT SHOULD I SERVE WITH THE EASTER CHEESE BALL?

I love to use vanilla wafers for dipping with this cheese ball. You can also use graham crackers, pretzels, or apple slices!

HOW TO STORE LEFTOVERS

Carefully place your cheese ball leftovers in a large container with a lid. If you do not have a container large enough to hold the cheese ball without causing damage to the legs and tail, consider wrapping it with plastic wrap.

You can store the cheese ball in your refrigerator for up to two weeks. I suggest letting it soften a bit on the counter before serving again.
