Help finding a book about a rabbit made of dough

Trying to find a book my mum read to me when I was a kid, in about 1990 (although the book may well be older than that), as I want to read it to my own son, but I cannot for the life of me remember the title. It was about a boy who had a small rabbit made of dough (like an uncooked biscuit basically). He loved it so much he insisted on taking it to school, but it got all bashed out of shape. In the end his mum made him a new one. Or something! Anyone remember this book?

Ooooh - I love a good 'find this for me' thread. We'll leave this thread here in case someone who knows comes along but you could also ask in Chat which tends to get more traffic.

Oh god I KNOW I’ve read this book! Can’t remember anything else about it though. Will let you know if anything comes to me!

Oh lordy, this is it, I can't believe it! How did you find it!? Looks like it will be difficult to track down a copy of it lol
