Easter Baking

This year, we tried something new and found that we LOVED it!

We made Resurrection Rolls; named that way because of their hollow center. 

1 can Crescent Rolls
1/4 cup melted butter
2 T sugar
2 T cinnamon
8 large marshmallows


Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Unroll each crescent triangle. Dip 1 marshmallow in melted butter, then roll it in the cinnamon mixture. Place cinnamon marshmallow in the center of the crescent triangle and roll it up, pinching the sides to seal in the marshmallow. Repeat until all marshmallows and crescent rolls are done. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden.


Let them cool about 10 minutes, then break open to see your "hollow tomb".  I read Charlotte her Easter Story book while we were letting them bake so that it would all make sense and she could understand the true meaning of Easter. 


Then later in the afternoon, we enjoyed making some yummy Easter cupcakes. Charlotte enjoyed sprinkling the tops the best!
