RESURRECTION ROLLS

Recipe and Instructions for Easter Rolls that tell the true meaning of Easter

which is the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.
This is an inspiring family project that can be done on Easter Morning.
...
Ingredients needed:
Crescent rolls
Melted butter
Large Marshmallows
Cinnamon
Sugar
Preheat Oven to 350 degrees
Give each child one triangle of crescent rolls.
Explain that he crescent roll represents the cloth that Jesus was wrapped in.
Read Matthew 27: 57-61

1. Give each child a marshmallow.
This represents Jesus.

2. Have him/her dip the marshmallow in melted butter.
This represents the oils of embalming.

3. Now dip the buttered marshmallow in the cinnamon and sugar.
This represents the spices used to anoint the body.

4. Then wrap up the coated marshmallow tightly in the crescent roll (not like a typical crescent roll up, but bring the sides up and seal the marshmallow inside.)
This represents the wrapping of Jesus' body after death.

5. Place all in a 350 degree oven for 10-12 minutes.
The oven represents the tomb--while you are waiting for the rolls to bake, read Matthew 27:62-66.

6. Remove rolls from oven and let them cool slightly.
Now the children can then open their rolls (cloths) and discover that Jesus is no longer there! HE IS RISEN!!!!
(The marshmallow melts and the crescent roll is puffed up, but empty.)

~ Now read Matthew 28:1-10

Enjoy your warm rolls as you rejoice at the good news of Easter!
And then go and tell someone else the good news today! ~ C4C

1. Ahh ....fundies and company...

[Vashta Nerada]

2. I want to add red food coloring to represent blood and holes poked in the sides of the marshmallow

to represent the spear pokes.

You know, for authenticity.

4. yummmmm

6. This reminds me of the folks who get worked up about flag burning.

They do far worse things to our flag, IMHO, than anyone who burns it is doing. Gaudy flag shirts, disposable plastic flags, etc.

Same with this - people like this insult Christianity far more than any atheist can do.

7. Sound like these will go well with that bacon-wrapped shrimp!

A couple of wonderful Easter appetizers.

8. I hear that if you eat the Jesus roll it comes back up ...

at some unspecificed point in the future ... believe me, it will happen ... you just have to have faith and wait for it.

[Goblinmonger]

10. or, perhaps like may have happened in the real story,

He went out the back door.

13. Houdini's got nuthin' on JC!

[deucemagnet]

9. aaaand now he REAPPEARS ON A TORTILLA!!!

Will these baked goods-based miracles ever end? Somebody transubstantiate me a taco!

[AtheistCrusader]

11. OMG YOU VAPORIZED JESUS

There's a special place in hell for you for that!

[Curmudgeoness]

12. "He is melted."

I find the most sacrilegious things here. And occasionally, they crack me up. That was a great subject line.

I'll bet these rolls are yummy.

[Arugula Latte]

14. Sacrilegious? ...

No! Sacredelicious!

[progressoid]

16. Sacredelicious!

I'm sure these are much better than those stale wafers.

[Rainforestgoddess]

15. OK, I think I'm going to make these with my kids

Sans silly religious symbolism, of course.

[AlbertCat]

17. Give each child a marshmallow. This represents Jesus.

I suppose it transubstantiates in the oven.

Does it do it with S'mores?
