Ingredients
  

  • 1 can 10-ounce refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
  • 8 large marshmallows
  • ¼ cup butter, melted
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • ¼ cup sugar

Equipment

  • Whisk
  • Baking Sheet
  • Oven
  • Mixing Bowl

Method
 

  1. First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This is an important step, as it ensures that your rolls bake evenly and become nice and golden brown.
  2. Next, line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone liner to prevent sticking. This will make cleanup easier once your Resurrection Rolls are out of the oven.
  3. Open the can of refrigerated crescent rolls and separate the rolls into eight triangular shapes. Be gentle to avoid tearing the dough.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the cinnamon and sugar. This mixture will add a delightful sweetness to your rolls.
  5. Now, take a large marshmallow and dip it into the melted butter. Make sure it's coated well; this will help the marshmallow stick to the dough.
  6. Next, roll the buttered marshmallow in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until it’s fully covered. This will provide an extra layer of flavor.
  7. Place the coated marshmallow in the center of each dough triangle. Be sure to roll the dough tightly around the marshmallow, pinching the seams to seal it securely.
  8. Arrange the sealed rolls on the prepared baking sheet with the seam side down. This will help them hold their shape while baking.
  9. Finally, bake the rolls in your preheated oven for 10 to 14 minutes or until they are golden brown. Keep an eye on them to make sure they don’t over-bake!
  10. Once they’re out of the oven, let them cool slightly before serving. As you bite into one, you’ll find the marshmallow surprise that makes these rolls so special!
