"Empty Tomb" Marshmellow Delights


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.


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
