INGREDIENTS FOR THE BATTER

4 eggs
25 g brown sugar (Adjust the amount of sugar to taste. It can be completely omitted or increased. The batter also works well sweetened with mashed banana.)
300 ml milk
25 g butter
250 g plain flour
10 g cocoa
Pinch of salt

INGREDIENTS FOR DECORATION

Banana
Kiwi
Blueberries
Mandarin

INSTRUCTIONS

1
Separate the eggs into yolks and whites.
2
Place the yolks in a large bowl, add sugar, and whisk the mixture until the yolks increase in volume.
3
Pour milk and melted butter into the yolks and then mix everything together.
4
Mix the flour with cocoa and then sift it into the bowl with the other ingredients.
5
Whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff and then gently fold them into the prepared mixture (Fold the egg whites into the mixture very gently to keep the batter fluffy).
6
Heat a pan and dry-fry round pancakes one ladle at a time. Use these as the body and head. Then proceed to make other shapes like ears, legs, arms, and snout, which are added to the pan using a small spoon or batter dispenser.
7
Assemble the bunny from the prepared pieces and decorate with banana, kiwi, blueberries, and mandarins. For variety, you can also use chocolate eggs.
