Resurrection rolls

From Kristie D.

1 pkg crescent rolls
regular (not mini, not huge) marshmallows
melted butter
cinnamon/sugar mixture

Place 1/2 to 1 marshmallow inside each crescent roll before rolling up. Seal edges (to seal marshmallow in. Roll in meted butter. Roll in cinnamon sugar. Bake according to roll directions.

These rolls have Easter symbolism. The marshmallow is Jesus being wrapped in linens (dough). They used oil (butter) and spices (cinnamon and sugar) on his body. They placed him in the tomb (oven) and when they checked back on Him 3 days later he had disappeared (risen). (The marshmallow will disappear when baking.
