Resurrection Rolls
- FOR THE ROLLS:
- 1/2 cups Cinnamon
- 1/2 cups Sugar
- 1/2 sticks Melted Butter
- 1 can Refrigerated Crescent Roll Dough (10 Oz Can)
- 8 whole Large Marshmallows
- FOR THE ICING:
- 3/4 cups Powdered Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- These directions are written in simple terms so that children are able to easily make them. However, you can make them and tell people what each part represents.
- Mix the cinnamon and sugar together in a small bowl before preparing rolls. Set aside. Melt the butter in another bowl and set aside.
- 1. Give each child one triangle shaped section of crescent roll dough. This represents the tomb.
- 2. Each child takes one marshmallow which represents the body of Christ.
- 3. Dip the marshmallow in the melted butter and roll it in the cinnamon and sugar mixture. This represents the oils and spices the body was anointed with upon burial.
- 4. Lay the marshmallow on the triangle of dough and carefully wrap it around the marshmallow.
- 5. Make sure all seams are pinched together well. (Otherwise the marshmallow will "ooze" out of the seams.)
- 6. Put the rolls onto a baking tray prepared as directed on the package directions. Bake according to the crescent roll package directions, usually 8-10 minutes.
- 7. Remove from oven and allow to cool. While they cool, combine the icing ingredients in a small bowl.
- 8. Drizzle the icing over the rolls.
- 9. Break open the rolls (which represent the tomb-and the body of Christ is no longer there!!).
- 10. Celebrate God's love!
