Resurrection Biscuits

I found this idea (unfortunately I can't remember where) for Easter and it turned out great. If not sealed well, the biscuits burst open, kind of like the stone rolling away. It was a great to explain the Easter story with my young boys. If you are a fan of elephant ears, you'll definitely like these.

1 tube biscuits
1 stick melted butter (took about 5 T)
1 c cinnamon and sugar mixture
regular size marshmallows

  • 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).
  • Bake according to the directions on the biscuit tube.
  • When you pull them out of the oven (have an adult do this) the marshmallow is gone!
  • HE IS NOT HERE! THE TOMB IS EMPTY! HE IS ALIVE!

Total Cost: $1.20
Biscuits $.45 (Walmart)
Butter $.40 (Sunmart)
Cinnamon/Sugar $.25 (Cashwise)
Marshmallows $.10 (Cashwise)
