Easter Mini Cakes In A Jar
Have you already started getting ready for Easter morning? I haven’t done a thing! We always go to my sister’s for Easter and I usually run around like crazy the day before trying to get everything together for the kids. I have managed to share a couple of fun and easy Easter recipes already and in case you missed them they are our Peeps Bunny Cupcakes and these Chocolate Pretzel Bunnies! Today, I wanted to share these Easter Mini Cakes In A Jar! Super cute, right? My kids love the little chocolate bunnies on top. Here’s how to make your own batch!

Well, what do you think about our Easter Mini Cakes In A Jar? You could also make these ahead (leaving the icing off), put the lids on your jars and then take them to your Easter gathering with you. Put out a variety of sprinkles and decorations, and let people create their own!
There is something about individual desserts in a jar that is just adorable to me. If you like this idea too, then check out this cookbook! There are 50 different treat in a jar ideas!
