Prepare 3D Bunny Pan with baking spray that contains flour. Using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, cream the sugar and butter until fluffy. Add milk and vanilla. In a separate bowl, combine sifted flour and baking powder. Add flour mixture in three parts to the butter mixture until incorporated. Beat egg whites until stiff and fold into batter. Pour prepared batter in bottom half of bunny mold (approximately 3 cups). Place top of mold over bottom half, interlocking seams. (Top half has vent holes to allow steam to escape.) Place mold on cookie sheet and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until cake tests done. (Test with toothpick through vent hole.) Mix icing ingredients together until desired consistency is reached. Remove mold from oven and cool 5 minutes. Invert mold onto cooling rack before standing in upright position. Trim bottom of cake if surface is not flat. Place a dab of icing on plate and stand mold in upright position. Brush on icing and decorate as desired with coconut, colored icing, or candies.
