• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
• In a large mixing bowl cream softened butter, shortening, and sugar. Beat until fluffy with an electric mixer or stand mixer with paddle attachment. Turn the mixer down and add egg, vanilla, and almond extract. Add baking powder. Add flour and cornstarch and mix thoroughly until soft dough forms.
• Lightly flour your work surface and shape dough into a large ball.
• No refrigeration necessary.
• Press ball of dough into a disk shape and roll dough out to desired thickness using a rolling pin (I usually do 1/4-1/2") and cut into shapes. Add flour to dough if it feels too sticky but a nice soft dough is what you want. Carefully transfer cut out cookie shapes with a spatula to a baking sheet.
• Bake on parchment paper-lined baking sheets for 10-12 minutes. Cookies will be soft. Let sit on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before carefully moving to a wire cooling rack. Cool completely before frosting.

Frosting

• Beat frosting ingredients together. Add more/less milk until the desired consistency is achieved.

  Spoon out about 1/3 cup of white frosting and set aside to use for the bunny feet and tails.

  Tint the remaining frosting green.

Decorating Cookies

• Fill a decorator (we like disposable) bag with green frosting and a 1A tip. Pipe the green frosting onto the cookies in a swirl pattern.
  
• Cut each donut hole in half and place them onto the frosted cookies.
  
• Fill a decorator bag with white frosting and a small round tip (Wilton size 7 or larger). Pipe bunny feet and tail onto the donut holes.
  
• Add sprinkles, if desired.
