Fluffy Marshmallow Bunny Cupcakes

INGREDIENTS:

1. 1 pkg. (2-layer size) white cake mix
   
2. 1 tub (8 oz.) COOL WHIP Whipped Topping, thawed
3. 6 drops food coloring, any color
4. 24 JET-PUFFED Marshmallows
5. 2 Tbsp. colored sugar decorating gel
   

DIRECTIONS:

• Prepare and bake cake batter as directed on package for 24 cupcakes; cool completely.
  
• Tint COOL WHIP with food coloring; spread onto cupcakes.
• Cut each marshmallow crosswise in half with clean kitchen shears. Press cut-sides of 24 marshmallow halves into colored sugar; flatten each slightly for the bunny's face. Cut through center of each of the remaining marshmallow halves to within 1/4 inch of opposite side; separate pieces slightly to resemble the bunny's ears. Press cut-sides of each ear into colored sugar; flatten slightly. Arrange faces and ears on tops of cupcakes. Decorate faces with gel. Keep refrigerated.
