Easter Sugar Cookie Cake

Easter Sugar Cookie Cake – this easy sugar cookie recipe is filled with spring M&Ms and sprinkles and baked in a cake pan. Make an easy frosting and you have the perfect spring cookie cake!

I know most of you aren’t food bloggers, but when I looked at these photos I was so excited. They’re practically glowing with golden light; in other words, I find them perfect. Plus all the fun pastel Easter colors…I’m kind of majorly crushing on the pics.

I take enough photos now that you’d think obtaining this kind of light would be easy, but it’s totally not. I see other bloggers get the golden “perfect” look to their photos every single time, yet I feel like I only hit one out of the park every once in awhile. I’m not sure why, but I think it has something to do with the fact that I’m the farthest from a perfectionist. I mean, I want everything to be perfect but I’m too lazy to figure out how to get it there (or keep it there).

I had a hard time coming up with a fun Easter recipe this year. Other than carrot cake, coconut, lemon and brunch, I don’t make that much in the way of typical “Easter” food, probably because we don’t celebrate past the Easter Bunny and his annoying egg hunt. But I love cute Easter desserts and I especially love using all the fun holiday candies and sprinkles. I thought about making another pudding cookie and call them Easter Bunny Explosions or something, but realized that would be wrong, plus I’ve done tons of pudding cookies recently.

Then I remembered how much I love sugar cookies, and how much I absolutely love sugar cookies with M&Ms inside. Adding the sprinkles was just a bonus!

So, I settled on a cookie cake. An EASTER Sugar Cookie Cake that’s perfect for the kids bunny party or a family potluck, or even Easter brunch. (Isn’t Easter all about eating as much sugar as possible since you gave it up for Lent?)
