Ingredients

1

pouch (17.5 oz) Betty Crocker™ chocolate chip cookie mix
Butter and egg called for on cookie mix pouch
1

container (16 oz) Betty Crocker™ Rich & Creamy vanilla frosting
Betty Crocker™ green and pink gel food color
Spring-colored nonpareils or Betty Crocker™ Cupcake Gems-Easter Pearls
20

PEEPS® party cake flavored or other flavor marshmallow chicks
2

PEEPS® brand marshmallow bunnies (yellow and pink)
2

tablespoons multicolored jelly beans (about 14 jelly beans)

Steps

1

Heat oven to 375°F. Line 12-inch rimmed pizza pan with foil; spray foil with cooking spray. Make cookie mix as directed on pouch. Using lightly floured fingers, press dough evenly in pan. Bake 15 to 17 minutes or until deep golden brown. Cool completely, about 1 hour; remove cookie from pan by lifting sides of foil. Carefully remove foil from cookie, and place on serving platter or tray.
2

Add 3/4 cup vanilla frosting to small bowl, and tint with green food color; add 1/2 cup frosting to another small bowl, and tint with pink food color. Spoon tinted frostings and remaining white frosting into 3 separate resealable food-storage freezer bags; set aside. Cut 1/2-inch opening from corner of each bag, and squeeze 1/2-inch mounded circles of alternating colored frosting (green, pink and white) around outer edge of cookie; add sprinkles.
3

Squeeze small amount of pink or white frosting onto bottom of each PEEPS® marshmallow chick, and place in circle formation inside outer frosting border of cookie. Add small 3-inch mounded circle of green frosting to center of cookie, filling in center. Using tines of fork, pull up on frosting to get a grass look. Place PEEPS® marshmallow bunnies in center of green frosting; add jelly beans and additional sprinkles, as desired.
4

To serve, cut into pie-shaped wedges, including at least one PEEPS® marshmallow chick or bunny on each.
