Ingredients
- 6 apples washed with stem removed and at room temperature
- 1 bag (12 oz) white chocolate chips
- 1 cup pastel-colored sprinkles
- 5 tablespoons pink icing
- 5 large pink heart sprinkles
- 10 large Candy eyes
Instructions
- Using a sharp knife, cut one of your apples into 10 even slices, minus the core.
- Place 2 toothpicks on either side of the top of your apples, pointed slightly outward.
- Place 2 apple slices, with the cut side out, onto the toothpicks to make bunny ears. Pat the ears dry with a paper towel and set aside.
- In a medium heat-safe bowl, heat your white chocolate chips according to package instructions until you have smooth white chocolate.
- Place a popsicle stick or rod into the center top of the apple and hold your assembled bunny apple over your bowl of white chocolate and spoon the white chocolate evenly over the apple, covering all sides and ears. Set the apple aside, top side up, until the white chocolate has hardened. Repeat this white chocolate process one or two more times until the bunny apples are fully coated in smooth white chocolate and no apple is showing through. Make sure each layer of white chocolate has fully hardened before applying another layer.
- Once your last layer has hardened, dip just the bottom inch of the apple in white chocolate and quickly dip it into your sprinkles, rolling it slightly so that the wet white chocolate is covered in sprinkles. Set them aside to harden.
- Using a pipping bag or a plastic bag with a hole cut in the corner, pipe a pink icing smile, a dot where the nose will be, and dots where the eyes will be. Place candy eyes and heart sprinkle nose on those icing dots using the icing as glue to hold them on.
- Lastly, spread pink icing in the center of each ear using a small knife.
- Once all icing and white chocolate has fully hardened, serve at room temperature or chilled.
Notes
- Storage Instructions:These Easter Bunny Apples are best served right away. They can be stored covered in your refrigerator for up to 3 days but are best enjoyed as soon as possible. I do not recommend freezing these Easter Bunny Apples.
- Make sure the apples are washed, dried, with stem removed, at room temperature before starting the recipe so you chocolate will stick.
- Insert a popsicle stick or rod into the center top of each apple before dipping in white chocolate.
- Use a sharp knife when cutting the apple slices so that you get even pieces and no jagged edges.
- Place two toothpicks on either side of your apple’s top and insert two apple slices as “ears” so they can be held in place with white chocolate later on.
- If your white chocolate chips will not become smooth add a teaspoon or two of coconut or vegetable oil and stir until blended.
- Use a spoon to make sure your entire apple is covered in white chocolate and no apple can be seen at all.
- Hold and gently tap your hand, not the stick, over the bowl allowing the excess chocolate to drip off each apple.
- Place apples onto parchment covered baking sheets after coating them in chocolate and allow them time to set and dry before dipping again and adding another layer of white chocolate to create a strong outside coating.
- Once your apple is totally covered in white chocolate, and last layer is hard or set, dip each apple one inch from bottom into melted white chocolated and then quickly dip into sprinkles, rolling around to make sure sprinkles are distributed as evenly as possible and allow to dry on parchment covered baking sheets.
- Use a pipping bag or resealable bag with corner cut off, pipe pink icing smile onto each bunny face as well as dots where their eyes and nose will be. These dots are the glue to attach your candy eyes or heart noses onto your apples securely!
- Smooth and spread pink icing in the center of each bunny ear using a small knife.
- Make sure all ingredients you'll need are pre-measured before starting the recipe.
- Work quickly while decorating your apples into the sprinkles as sprinkles can melt from leftover heat from the apples.
- When using candy eyes and heart sprinkle nose, press down firmly on each piece so they stick properly.
