Today we bake Easter Bunny paws with a homemade glaze. The cookies taste slightly different from our standard vanilla cookies but they are very tasty, they are made with a little cinnamon and brown caster sugar. In addition, the mini monsters find them very cute! ;))
How to make Easter Bunny Paws
Mix the butter with the sugar creamy.
Scrape the butter mixture off the side.

Knead the crumbs quickly smooth by hand.
Wrap the dough in cling film.
