Directions

1 Start by removing the cinnamon rolls from the package. Place 4 cinnamon rolls on large lightly greased cookie sheet about 3 inches apart. Unroll remaining 4 cinnamon rolls and place on cookie sheet touching one of the coiled cinnamon rolls and folding ends under to create the floppy bunny ears. Pinch the dough to secure the ears to the bunny head.
2 Firmly press 3 raisins on top of each roll to form the eyes and nose and the almonds for the teeth.
3 Bake according to package directions.
4 Cool completely, frost and decorate the ears.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

The bunnies will puff up as they cook so make sure to press the raisins into the dough and slide one end of the nut into the dough as well so they will stay secure as they bake.

Be sure to also secure the ears well by pinching the dough together near the head with your fingers.

They are supposed to look silly so don’t stress about making them too perfect.

I agree with Jonssponge. Pillsbury clearly isn't actually "rolling" their cinnamon buns any more. I tried to unroll one - even used a knife to help separate - it ended up a misshapen mess. Instead we cut 4 rolls in half, shaped the halves into ears & pinched them onto the other 4 rolls. They turned out cute! We used slivered almonds for the teeth. We plan to ice the whole bunny & use candy eyes & a "micro" marshmallow for the nose. These are a gift for my grandmother whose birthday is coming up. I know she'll love them! :)

OK Betty Crocker! I was SO excited to try out these fun little cinnabunnies. They are so cute and seem so easy to make! I bought the exact same cinnamon rolls shown in the tutorial and apparently YOU have decided to make the cinnamon "rolls" more biscuit-like these days. I have to rip the rolls apart and concoct some funky looking ears for my bunnies. Bummed, but I hope they taste good!! Is it so hard to make a cinnamon roll, a roll of dough like it is supposed to be? :(
