Don't think traditional, "rabbit food" here. No carrots, lettuce or cabbage from Mr. McGregor's garden are anywhere in sight for this Easter Bunny Snack Food. This is one of the easiest and fun snacks you can make – not only for little hoppers, but big grown-up rabbits as well.   Here's what I started with, but I decided to omit the white candy melts (waxy) and only go with the white chocolate chips. Popcorn Dark chocolate and white chocolate M&M's Springtime-Easter sprinkles and candies, including Wilton candy carrots.   Pop the popcorn, and spread it out on parchment paper.   Melt the white chocolate and drizzle over the popcorn.   Then think to yourself, "Hey, I love salty things with my sweet things and after all, this IS SOUTH ALABAMA where peanuts are one of our largest crops!" Then, pull out the can of Piggly Wiggly Party Peanuts. Sprinkle those on, along with all the candies. Drizzle on more chocolate, and  . . .   Ta-da!   Wait until it dries ( you won't believe this, but I had on the air-conditioner . . . 80° on April 1st and it wasn't an April Fool's joke!). Break into chunks and you are ready to feed a bunch of bouncy bunnies. * Can you imagine how cute this would be with red, white and blue candies for Independence Day? Or how about green candies for Leprechaun "Food?" Hmmm . . . now I'm on a roll. Little orange pumpkins? Here are some cookies I made for another little snack. You can't live on rabbit food alone!
