PREPARATION DIRECTIONS
Step 1
PREPARE cake mix according to package directions using water, oil and eggs. Bake in 2 (8-inch) round cake pans according to package directions. Cool completely.

MEASURE 2 inches in from both sides of cake; mark with toothpicks. Using additional toothpicks, mark a 6 x 2-inch oval football shape on each side of cake to make the ears. Cut out ovals with serrated knife. The center section of cake layer will be the "bow tie" for the bunny (see photo).
Step 3
