Resurrection Rolls

These roles are hollowed out in a sinner. Representing the empty tomb. It requires just a few basic ingredients. This recipe requires less than 30 minutes, actually only 25 minutes. It takes 10 minutes of prep time. Plus, it takes 15 minutes of cooking time. The total time comes out to 25 minutes.

Ingredients & Representation

1. Crescent rolls (Wrapping Jesus in Shroud)
2. Marshmallows (Sinless Jesus)

3. Cinnamon sugar (Incense)
4. Melted butter (Anointing Him in oils)

Each element has a meaning to the resurrection of Jesus Christ (as indicated above). Including baking these in the oven which when completely cooked represent the empty tomb.

According to All Recipes this is the basic directions.

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
2. Separate crescent rolls into individual triangles.
3. In a small bowl, mix together cinnamon and sugar.
4. Dip a marshmallow into melted butter, then roll in sugar mixture. …
5. Bake in a preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

I never heard of these until one Resurrection Sunday. Sharon Burney, a member of Piedmont Baptist Church, made these for the breakfast that year.

I might recommend putting parchment paper down on your cookie sheet you use to bake these Resurrection Rolls.
