The generosity shown to me after I had Wes was unbelievable. Not only did my church friends bring in meals for 5 days but my friends brought in 4 meals after that. Usually I have food issues. I'm not sure where it stemmed from. Maybe it's just that I have found one too many hairs in food. Anyway, unless I know you well...and know that you are a clean cook I am wary of your food. A bit snobbish, but it's the truth. After I had the baby, however, I didn't even think about any of that. I was humbled and truly grateful for everyones willingness to help make a meal.
My friend Wendy is an amazing cook and brought in these babies as dessert with her meal. The marshmallow melts inside the roll creating a juicy sauce. It's like an inside out cinnamon roll. I have heard these referred to as "Empty Tomb" rolls that can be made at Easter. They are easy to make with kids and they invite the opportunity to explain about the ressurection because the disappearing marshmallow is supposed to represent Jesus being risen.
Here's a breakdown of the symbolism:
- Large Marshmallows - body of Jesus
- Melted Butter - oils of embalming
- Cinnamon & Sugar Mix- spices used to annoint the body.
- Crescent Roll - the wrapping of Jesus’ body or the tomb.
- Oven – the tomb
- Cavity in bun – the empty tomb or the empty cloths
1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent rolls
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
8 large marshmallows
1/4 cup butter, melted
Separate rolls into eight triangles. Combine sugar and cinnamon. Dip each marshmallow into butter, roll in cinnamon-sugar and place on a triangle. Pinch dough around marshmallow, sealing all edges. *Make sure to seal well or all the marshmallow will escape.
Dip tops of dough into remaining butter and cinnamon-sugar. Place with sugar side up in greased muffin cups. It helps to use jumbo muffin tins so that the juice doesn't overflow.
Bake at 375 degrees for 13 to 15 minutes. Eat warm.

These look so yummy! I have always loved marshmallows.
wow doesn't rven look like theres marshmallow in there
Interesting...I want one with a cup of coffee!
two things i love but have never consumed in combination = crescent rolls and marshmallows. these are exquisite and i intend to make a batch posthaste!
These are hilarious and VERY clever! They also look and sound delicious.
I wonder if I could use homemade biscuit dough instead? It's not the same a crescent rolls, but might be just as good... or maybe too heavy? Hmmm....
I made these for my sunday school class of 3-5 graders and they loved them. They wrapped their own and we put them in the oven - and they came out perfectly hollow (a few of the less pinched leaked), but they got the point, and they tasted WONDERFUL. Even the leftovers not warm were good - the inside turned to a wonderful GOO! :)
Made these puppies for a special treat following the "Baked Ziti", and my boy's devoured them! Very Yummy....And soo easy!!
I've made these twice and both times they stuck to the muffin tin. Half of them oozed out during baking. I sure would like it if I didn't have to dig them out of the muffin tins and soak the tins in hot water to clean. What am I doing wrong? My husband and granddaughter can't get enough of them. They don't care how they turn out. My husband puts frozen whipped cream in the center. Please Help!

Yvonne,
A couple things to help you so they don't leak:
Really try to seal and pinch up the dough tight so that it doesn't leak. Also spray the muffin tins well with PAM so it doesn't stick if it does leak. Finally, some people said that Pilsbury brand rolls work the best and leak less.
Good luck,
Christy

My wife and I are trying these tonight (Easter Sunday) with our 9-month old son (our first child) as the beginning of our new Family Easter Tradition.
