Resurrection Rolls

Demonstrated by Dorothy Breinholt
These are so yummy and fun to make.
Ingredients:
  •  8 Rhodes rolls, crecent rolls or homemade roll dough
  •  8 large marshmallows
  • 1/3 cube melted butter
  • 3/4 tsp.Cinnamon
  • 4 TB Sugar
Directions:
  1. Give each child one roll. This represents the tomb.
  2. Each child takes one marshmallow which represents the body of Christ.
  3. Dip the marshmallow in the butter and roll in cinnamon and sugar mixture. This represents the oils and spices the body was anointed with upon burial.
  4. Roll the dough into a circle and lay the marshmallow on the 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. Let dough rise until double in size if using Rhodes rolls or homemade dough.
  7. Bake according  to package directions.
  8. Cool.
  9. Break open the tomb and the body of Christ is no longer there!!
Cook's Note: These can be made up the night before Easter. Just leave them in the fridge to rise overnight.
