Resurrection Biscuits

We make these every year on Easter Morning before heading to church. I will post pictures of them after they are made. But wanted to post them before Easter in case anyone wanted to make them.

1 tube biscuits
1 stick melted butter
cinnamon and sugar mixture (about a cup)
Fat Marshmellows (as many as biscuits you have)


Roll the biscuits flat. Stick a marshmallow on each biscuit (marshmallows represent Jesus). Completely seal each marshmallow in each biscuit (as the tomb was sealed).
Roll biscuit balls in butter then in sugar mixture (represents the dirt in the tomb or the embalming spices needed to bury the dead).
Bake according to the directions on the biscuit tube. When you pull them out of the oven the marshmallow is gone! HE IS NOT HERE! THE TOMB IS EMPTY! HE IS ALIVE!

A cool way of showing your kids the story of Jesus' Resurrection.
