Marshmallow Crescent Rolls

I love bread, pasta, sweets, etc….anything with carbs!  So what better way to end the weekend but by having sweet and bread all in one.  I made these tasty little treats that went over very well in our home.  My six-year-old son had 4 for supper (and ate nothing else on his plate) plus 2 more before bed. The next morning they were just as good after being microwaved for a few seconds to warm them.

Oven: 375 degrees     Bake Time:  12-15 minutes                 Yield: 16 rolls

 Ingredients:

  Rolls

  • ¼ c sugar
  • 2 T flour
  • 1 t. ground cinnamon
  • 2 cans (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent dinner rolls (I used reduced fat store brand)
  • 16 large marshmallows
  • ¼ c butter melted

Glaze

  • ½ c powdered sugar
  • ½ t vanilla
  • 2 to 3 t milk

Directions:

  • Heat oven to 375°F.
  • Spray 16 medium muffin cups with No-Stick Cooking Spray.
  • In small bowl, mix granulated sugar, flour and cinnamon.
  • Separate dough into 16 triangles. For each roll, dip 1 marshmallow into melted butter; roll in sugar mixture. Place marshmallow on shortest side of triangle. Roll up, starting at shortest side and rolling to opposite point. Completely cover marshmallow with dough; firmly pinch edges to seal. NOTE:  If you don’t seal, you will have marshmallow goo all over your pans!
  • Dip 1 end in remaining butter; place butter side down in muffin cup.
  • Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Cool in pan 1 minute. Remove rolls from muffin cups; place on cooling racks set over waxed paper.
  • In small bowl, mix powdered sugar, vanilla and enough milk for desired drizzling consistency. Drizzle glaze over warm rolls.
  • Serve warm.
