Time 24m

Yield 4 rolls, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (8 count) can refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
4 regular marshmallows
3 tablespoons butter, melted in shallow baking dish
1 cup cinnamon sugar, in small bowl

Steps:

  • Roll out the crescent rolls and separate.
  • Place two crescent rolls next to each other with the wide ends of the triangles overlapping to form a right angle.
  • Show the marshmallows and explain that the color white represents purity in God's eyes of those whose sins have been cleansed by Jesus. Read: Isaiah 1:18 and John 3:1-3.
  • Dip marshmallows individually in the butter, then roll in the cinnamon and sugar mixture, coating evenly. Place one butter and cinnamon sugar coated marshmallow in each set of crescent rolls. Pull up the narrow ends of the triangles and wrap the crescent roll dough completely around the marshmallow, sealing well. It is very important that no gaps are present.
  • Explain that each marshmallow represents Jesus' body which was wrapped (covered in sugar mixture) and placed in the tomb which was then sealed tight (closed up in the dough.) Read: Matthew 27:57-60.
  • Use remaining butter to brush the tops of the "tombs" and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar to taste.
  • Bake on cookie sheet at 375°F for 14 minutes, or until the tops are a deep golden brown. Cool 1 minute in the pan. Serve and enjoy!
  • When the "tombs" are ready to be served have each person break theirs open and experience the emptiness of the tomb. Explain that Jesus was raised from the dead and His followers were amazed to find the tomb empty. Read: Matthew 28:1-9.

Time 1h15m

Yield 24 rolls, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

24 frozen yeast rolls, thawed (such as Rhode's Bake and Serve, it needs to be the raw dough, not the pre-baked kind)
24 large marshmallows
1/4 cup butter, melted
6 tablespoons sugar
1 -1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Press the rolls flat.
  • Place a marshmallow in the center of each roll and pinch the dough around it.
  • Press the marshmallow-filled rolls into round-ish balls.
  • Brush each roll with butter and sprinkle it with the combined cinnamon and sugar.
  • Let the rolls rise for 30-45 minutes.
  • Bake them at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Just like the tomb on Easter Sunday, these rolls are empty!
  • More notes: You can easily make as many or as few as you like! I usually just make 12, which is the perfect amount for a 9x13 pan. I also usually do all the assembly the night before so that on baking day I can just pull them out of the fridge and let them rise on the counter and bake. These are a perfect sweet breakfast for Easter morning!
  • (I have listed this as making 12 servings, even though it makes 24 rolls, because we can never eat just one -- and prep. time includes rising.).

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your rolls will taste. This is especially true for the tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella cheese.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make your rolls tough. Mix it just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: This will help the dough to double in size and become light and airy.
  • Bake the rolls at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust and a fluffy interior.
  • Serve the rolls warm: Empty tomb rolls are best served warm, right out of the oven. You can also reheat them in the oven or microwave.

Conclusion:

Empty tomb rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make bread recipe that is perfect for any occasion. They are perfect for Easter brunch, lunch, or dinner. You can also make them ahead of time and freeze them for later. Simply thaw them overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for a few hours before baking.
