Bunny Shaped Quesadillas Snack (Printable)

Crispy tortillas filled with cheeses and veggies, shaped like bunnies for a festive and tasty treat.

# What You'll Need:

→ Quesadillas

01 - 6 large flour tortillas
02 - 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
03 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
04 - 0.5 cup diced bell peppers (red, yellow, or orange)
05 - 0.5 cup sweet corn kernels (canned or fresh cooked)
06 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

→ Decoration

07 - 12 black olive slices for eyes
08 - 6 baby carrots for noses
09 - 6 sprigs fresh parsley or cilantro for whiskers
10 - Sour cream for dipping, optional

# Directions:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Using a bunny-shaped cookie cutter or template with a sharp knife, cut bunny shapes from the tortillas to yield approximately 12 bunny shapes, 2 per quesadilla.
03 - Place half of the tortilla bunnies on the prepared baking sheet. Evenly distribute cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, diced bell peppers, and corn kernels across each tortilla bunny.
04 - Top each filled tortilla bunny with a second tortilla bunny shape. Lightly brush the tops with melted butter using a pastry brush.
05 - Bake for 8-10 minutes until cheese is fully melted and tortillas achieve a golden color.
06 - Allow to cool slightly. Decorate each warm quesadilla by pressing black olive slices for eyes, baby carrot piece for nose, and parsley or cilantro sprigs for whiskers into the cheese.
07 - Transfer to serving plates and serve warm with sour cream on the side for dipping.
