I had no idea anyone else made this cake! It's been an Easter tradition at our house since my childhood. Fun-fetti cake mix works great and gives it a fun look. We also dye some coconut pink, to fill the ears, and green for the bow. Gum drops also work great for the eyes and decorations.

The recipe was simple to make. (minus zesting the lemon)However the bake times were off. I was preparing them for a friend and planned accordingly to the times provided. I summed it up to be about 45 minutes of baking and thirty minutes of prep. Long story short my friend ended up waiting an extra half hour for them and I had to turn them over only half cooked. The crust alone took nearly a half hour and the filling took an hour. The finished product mediocre for all the time spent on them; the filling was blan and the crust outweighed it (the crust itself was not good at all) I would never make this again (Not that my friend would ever want them again after how bad they turned out.) This recipe turned out to be a disapointment and a wast of time.
