You also have the option of printing these AMAZING pieces of art out. Maybe frame a few?!

 

Just like cooking…which I firmly believe is a form of art.

“Empty Tomb” Marshmallow Delights

December 23, 2011 in Desert, Food, Recipes

So I saw this on The Girl Who Ate Everything and it’s so… smart…

They’re call “Marshmallow Delights” by Wendy Weisenburger and found on allrecipes

Here’s what you need:

1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent rolls
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
8 large marshmallows
1/4 cup butter, melted

Separate rolls into eight triangles. Combine sugar and cinnamon. Dip each marshmallow into butter, roll in cinnamon-sugar and place on a triangle. Pinch dough around marshmallow, sealing all edges. *Make sure to seal well or all the marshmallow will escape.

Dip tops of dough into remaining butter and cinnamon-sugar. Place with sugar side up in greased muffin cups. It helps to use jumbo muffin tins so that the juice doesn’t overflow.

Bake at 375 degrees for 13 to 15 minutes.

 

Give it a try…
