Empty Tomb Rolls
Empty Tomb Rolls, also known as Resurrection Rolls, are a delightful treat with a meaningful message.
This easy recipe is perfect for Easter or any time you want to enjoy a sweet and symbolic dessert.
The hollow center represents the empty tomb of Christ, making it a fun and educational activity for families.
Ingredients
- 1 can of refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 8 large marshmallows
- 3 tablespoons of melted butter
- 1/4 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon together.
- Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into 8 triangles.
- Take one marshmallow and dip it in the melted butter, ensuring it’s fully coated.
Then roll it in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until evenly covered. - Place the coated marshmallow in the center of a crescent roll triangle.
- Wrap the dough around the marshmallow, sealing all edges tightly.
This step is crucial to prevent the marshmallow from leaking out while baking. - Repeat the process for the remaining marshmallows and dough.
- Arrange the rolls on the prepared baking sheet, seam-side down, and brush the tops with any remaining melted butter.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.
When you break open the rolls, the marshmallow will have melted, leaving the inside hollow.
Serving Suggestions
These rolls are best served warm and can be paired with a cup of tea or coffee.
They also make a great addition to an Easter brunch or Sunday breakfast.
Tips
- For added flavor, you can drizzle a glaze made of powdered sugar and milk on top.
- If you don’t have crescent roll dough, puff pastry works as a substitute.
- Seal the edges tightly to avoid marshmallow leakage during baking.
Enjoy these Empty Tomb Rolls as a sweet reminder of hope and celebration!
