RESURRECTION ROLLS

Kat Baldwin, Kyle Baldwin, Recipe #12

Dear Parents,
I found this cute idea for a FHE on the internet and thought I would share with you.
RESURRECTION ROLLS

Ingredients:
Cresent Rolls
Melted butter
Large Marshmallows
Cinnamon Sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Give each child a triange of crescent roll. The crescent roll represents the cloth that Jesus was wrapped in.
Give each child a marshmallow to represent Jesus' body.
Have them dip the marshmallow in melted butter, representing the embalming oils.
Then dip the buttered marshmallow in cinnamon sugar, representing the spices used to anoint the body.
Then wrap the marshmallow tightly in the crescent roll dough, not rolled like a typical crescent roll, but sealed in.
This represents the wrapping of Jesus' body after his death.
Bake in oven 10 to 12 min. The oven represents the tomb...pretend that takes 3 days.
(this would be a good time for singing songs.)

When the rolls have cooled slightly, the children can open their rolls and discover that Jesus is no longer there.
HE HAS RISEN!!

(the marshmallow melts and the srescent roll is puffed up, but empty)

I hope you all have a Happy Easter and remember the true meaning of the holiday.
Love Sister Oberhansley
