Empty Tombs

I make these every year.  

1 loaf thawed Bridgeford Bread
1/3 cup melted butter
1 T. Cinnamon
1 Cup Sugar
1/4 - 1/3 bag of Mini Marshmallows

Slice thawed bread into 30-36 pieces.  Working with one piece of dough at a time, flatten the dough, then dip both sides into melted butter, coat in cinnamon sugar mixture.  Make a small indention in the dough and place  3-4 mini marshmallows depending on the size of the dough.  Pinch edges together to cover the marshmallows.  Dip the top again into the cinnamon sugar mixture.  Place pinched side down onto a cookie sheet that has been sprayed with Pam spray.  Bake 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees.

* You can make you own bread recipe, if you like.
* Before working with dough, spray your hands with Pam to keep dough from sticking to your hands.
* Remove from pan within 10 minutes, rolls will stick to the pan otherwise.  They are sticky because of the melted marshmallows.  Since they do melt, that is what makes the tomb empty inside.  

Have a Blessed Easter!
