If Santa gets milk and cookies on Christmas Eve then I would think that Easter Bunny would be very pleased to receive his very own carrot patch!
This dessert is great for Easter, spring, or garden themed party. It is simpler to put together than you think. Store bought brownie mix and a tub of chocolate frosting makes this wonderful treat so much easier to make. The edible dirt made of crushed Oreo cookies, chocolate coated strawberries as carrots, marshmallow bunnies and egg candies for additional decorations...cuteness overload!
