This elegant and tasty Easter Bunny Babka is easy to make. The secrets lie in making two babka batters and using a small, bunny shaped cookie cutter. The batters should be of different colors. After baking the darker babka, slice it and cut each slice into a bunny shape. Different cookie cutter shapes like egg or lamb can be used instead of bunny. Using the same size (as before) baking pan, line up the bunnies inside the pan and cover them with the second (light in color) babka batter. The baked result is not only delicious but also pleasing to the eye. The cake makes a great presentation.

Add eggs, one at the time, mixing well each time. Sift flour, baking powder, cocoa and add it to the butter. Using a spatula, blend all the ingredients. Add milk and stir until incorporated.
- Preheat the oven to 325F. Using extra butter, grease a 9x5" loaf pan and sprinkle it lightly with flour. Pour babka batter inside, even it out and bake for 50-60 min or until toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
