Prepare my Homemade Cinnamon Roll Dough, cover bowl and let rise until doubled in size, about 60-90 minutes.

Prepare my Cream Cheese Frosting (see notes to transform it to a strawberry flavored frosting).

Preheat your oven to 350° F. It takes a good 30 minutes for ovens to fully preheat.

Prepare baking sheet with either parchment paper or spray with nonstick spray.

On a floured work surface, divide dough into two equal pieces, about 28-30 ounces. Roll the dough to a rectangle, 12 inches by 18 inches.

Spread melted butter onto the surface of the dough, leaving a one-inch clean border on the left, 12-inch side. Leaving this clean border will help the dough pinch together when rolling up the cinnamon rolls.

Sprinkle on 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup of the brown sugar cinnamon mixture and spread it out evenly – again leaving that one-inch clean border on the left side.

With a pizza cutter, cut the dough down the center both vertically and horizontally. Then cut the dough horizontally into 8 equal pieces, yielding 16 total strips of dough.

With the 8 pieces on the left side, roll them up, from right to left, ending on the clean border. Tuck the end of the dough under the cinnamon roll and set onto a baking sheet either lined with parchment or sprayed with nonstick spray. This round cinnamon roll, will be the bunny face.

Now, it’s time to make the bunny ears. With the 8 pieces on the right, fold each of them in half and then turn the ends down in the opposite direction, forming an “m” shape. Place the m-shaped piece above the top of the cinnamon roll, pinching them together. Now you should have a bunny shaped cinnamon roll.

Place the bunny shaped cinnamon rolls about three inches apart as they will puff up in the oven. You should be able to comfortably fit 6 bunnies on a half sheet baking sheet (13×18).

Once your pan is full, bake immediately* in a preheated oven for 16-20 minutes, or until lightly golden.

If you want to pipe on a frosting like mine, allow cinnamon rolls to cool completely before icing. If you want more of a glaze or runny type frosting, frost them while slightly warm.

To pipe with strawberry cream cheese frosting, fill a piping bag fitted with a large round piping tip. Starting in the center of the round cinnamon roll, pipe a circular swirl from the center out to the outside edge. Pipe an outline of the bunny ears. Optional: sprinkle with pastel sprinkles for more of a Springtime or Easter look.

Serve and enjoy!
