Please imagine my shock and horror when my LO came home saying they made “evaporating Jesus rolls” at his church kids club. After many clarifying questions with his Sunday school teacher I discovered that he made these. They’re a regular request now, not just at Easter.

Oh my goodness! It was fun to make, delicious to eat and taught a fun and essential lesson about The Resurrection of Jesus.

Awesome!

In reply to Terry Harrison. Hi Terry! Love your comment! Sorry some of the marshmallow didn't stay inside the crescent roll. I did have one or two that did that to me as well. I think it just has to do with the dough not being closed all the way and the seams opening. I'm sure it was a great teaching moment for your kiddos regardless! Thanks for giving it a try!

Well, I thought I would try this out with my kids to teach them about the resurrection. All their Sunday School lessons are leading up to Easter so I thought I would give them a preview of attractions. Truth is, I really wanted to taste these rolls. Everything was going well until I opened “the tomb” and we found that the marshmallows had exploded all over the pan during cooking and rather than it being a wonderful teaching moment, it looked like Jesus had exploded on the baking sheet. I don’t know what I did wrong. I followed the recipe exactly. I should have let my wife handle it from there, but I was nervous and couldn’t stop talking; trying to put a positive spin on the gooey mess. Anyway, I’m pretty sure my oldest is going to need therapy.

The rolls were yummy though!

I was asked to make these for our church’s Easter service this Sunday, and I have to say, I was surprised at how good they are! They were delicious. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

we make these each year! we haven’t read the passage before though and i think we should now that you mentioned it 🙂 one thing we do different is we also put nuts in a baggie and pound them…reminding us that He was bruised for our transgressions. add them into the roll before closing and cooking .Happy Resurrection!
