Empty Tomb Rolls

HB-18196 · Hand-built original · American

Thawed dinner rolls are wrapped around cinnamon-sugar marshmallows, rolled again in butter and cinnamon sugar, and baked in a muffin tin. The marshmallow melts away inside each golden roll, leaving a hollow, spiced centre.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 12 thawed Rhodes rolls
  • 12 jumbo marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup melted butter

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 350°F and grease a 12-cup muffin tin so the tomb rolls release after baking.
  2. Whisk the sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl for the roll coating and flatten each thawed roll into a small circle of dough.
  3. Dip each jumbo marshmallow into the melted butter, then roll the buttered marshmallows through the cinnamon sugar until coated on all sides.
  4. Set a coated marshmallow in the centre of each flattened dough circle and fold the dough up and over the marshmallow, pinching the seams of the tomb rolls tightly shut.
  5. Roll the assembled rolls through the remaining melted butter and then the cinnamon sugar a second time so the outsides are fully coated.
  6. Bake the filled rolls in the muffin tin for 10 to 15 minutes until puffed and golden, then cool the empty tomb rolls briefly before serving the warm buns.
