Easter Bunny Pull Apart Bread

Servings: (2 piece) servings

Calories: 251cal

Heat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
Cut cheese into small pieces (approximately 0.35 ounces each) to make 50 pieces.
Separate dough into 16 biscuits. Cut 13 of the 16 biscuits into fourths for a total of 52 biscuit pieces. YOU WILL NOT use all the biscuits, there will be a few left over. Roll each piece into a ball.
Push a piece of cheese into a dough ball, pinch the seams together and then roll into a ball again.
Position a ramekin on the cookie sheet where the bunny tail will go.
Place biscuit balls seam side down and next to each other to form a bunny shape, working around the ramekin, on the cookie sheet.
Melt butter in the microwave then stir in the garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Brush butter mixture over the biscuit balls.
Bake 15-17 minutes or until golden brown. You can turn the oven to broil and brown the tops for a minute or so if you like.
Sprinkle the top of the "bunny" with fresh parsley and parmesan cheese.
Allow to cool slightly then fill ramekin with ranch dressing.

If you line your baking sheet with parchment, you will be able to lift the entire bunny bread off the baking sheet and onto a waiting platter or cutting board.
One cup of dressing is probably plenty, but you can certainly put out more just in case!
A piece of string cheese weighs approximately 1 ounce, depending on the brand. You can use string cheese and cut a 1-ounce stick into thirds. Then cut those in half and use 2 pieces per dough ball. We suggest cutting those in half again because one-third of a cheese stick would be too long and you wouldn't be able to form a ball.
