Chocolate Bunny Shots: A Sweet Easter Indulgence for Parents
by Jessica Parker
April 15, 2017
Say hello to your new favorite Easter ritual! With Easter just around the corner, your little ones are probably bouncing off the walls in excitement over their candy haul. Meanwhile, you might just be wishing for a quiet retreat to escape the impending sugar-fueled chaos. Fear not, because we have the ideal treat to help you through the day: delightful chocolate shots served straight from a hollow chocolate bunny!
You heard it right—go bold or go home, parents! This genius idea comes from a creative soul named Karen Miller, who shared it on social media to help us navigate the inevitable pandemonium of Easter Sunday. After all, no parent should have to face the day without a little liquid courage. And once the kids have devoured their baskets, you’ll have plenty of chocolate vessels ready for use.
As Karen puts it, “It’s that time of year again—the perfect moment to turn hollow chocolate bunnies into shot glasses.” As a fan of both sweet liqueurs and candy, I can’t help but feel a tad envious that I didn’t think of this first. But let’s celebrate this delightful discovery together! Here’s the recipe Karen generously shared:
- 1 shot of Godiva Dark Chocolate Liqueur
- 1 shot of Salted Caramel Vodka
- A splash of half-and-half
All poured into a hollow chocolate bunny that’s been split in half, of course. Is your mouth watering yet? It sounds like a dream come true—dessert within dessert, plus a little something to take the edge off while your candy-crazed kids run wild.
Don’t restrict yourself to just these flavors—eager commenters on Karen’s post suggested using an array of different liquors to fill these adorable bunnies. Kahlúa, Baileys, and vanilla vodka were all mentioned as potential candidates for your bunny shots. Count us in! One ingenious commenter even proposed using the bunny ears as shot glasses too—waste not, want not!
While Easter may be primarily for the kids, why not allow adults a little indulgence too? After all, all those egg hunts, bunny photo ops, and overflowing baskets wouldn’t be possible without our hard work. As Karen cleverly notes, “Is it wrong to celebrate a risen Savior with a chocolate bunny shot? If it is, I don’t want to be right.” We couldn’t agree more. Cheers to you, parents!
