Pull-Apart Cheesy Bread
This pull-apart cheesy bread is the ultimate Easter roll recipe. Serve with dinner for a fun treat or your holiday feast. Either way, everyone will thank you.
What Cheese Do You Use for Cheesy Bread
I am all about making things easy, so I reached for mozzarella cheese sticks that I cut up and used. You could also use block cheese that you would cube up yourself.
You could also use another type of cheese. If you want a kick of heat reach for pepper jack or jalapeno cheese. Or maybe reach for a cheddar if you want a tamer flavor.
How Do You Make The Bunny Shape Out Of Rolls
As you can see the head part is a round circle of rolls. Then for the ears, I did two rows of rolls as you can see pictured above. You will want to have a large baking sheet so that you can fully create the Easter face.

You will do two slices of olives for the eyes. A cherry tomato as the nose, and sliced green onions for the whiskers. You could also use celery in replace of green onions for the whiskers.

Easter Bunny Pull Apart Cheesy Bread
Easter bunny pull apart cheesy bread is the ultimate Easter recipe. Whip up this easy cheesy bread roll recipe made with store bought biscuits.
Ingredients
- 16 Mozzarella Cheese Sticks
- 16 Pillsbury Grand Homestyle Buttermilk Biscuits
- 2 Tablespoons Butter
- ½ Teaspoon Garlic Powder
- ½ of a Cherry Tomato
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup sliced black olives
- 2 green onions
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut each cheese stick into four pieces.
Remove the biscuits from their containers and split each biscuit in
half, making 32 pieces of dough. Place parchment paper on baking
sheet.
Flatten each piece of dough. Take two pieces of string cheese
and wrap both in one piece of dough, pinching the dough around the
sides so the cheese won’t melt out while baking. Roll the dough
into a ball.
Place on parchment paper. Do the same for every piece of
biscuit dough and arrange into a bunny shape like in the picture.
Microwave the butter until fully melted.
Mix in the garlic powder and brush the mixture over the top and sides of the bunny. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the bunny. Bake for 20 minutes and
remove from the oven to add the bunny face.
Add ½ cherry tomato for the nose. Cut green onions to create bunny whiskers on each side of the nose.
Use sliced black olives for the eyes and the mouth as shown.
Bake for 10-13 more minutes or until the dough is golden and the center is baked. Gently slide onto a pretty tray and serve with marinara sauce, if desired.

How To Store Leftover Cheesy Rolls
You will want to store your leftover rolls in the fridge. They will store in the fridge for 4-7 days. They are best when served fresh and warm from the oven. You can reheat in the oven or even the microwave.
Where do I use the 1/2 cup sliced black olives? I know it says for the eyes, but it looks like just 1 olive sliced in half.
