Resurrection Rolls - for Easter Morning Breakfast

This another cooking option that does NOT involve having to cook the ingredients and leave them overnight in the oven. This is a recipe that uses crescent dough - a winner for me because they taste good and are so easy! The ingredients are simple and can be fit into any busy schedule. While you are making them with your kids, talk about the symbolic meaning of each of the ingredients and how they point to Jesus’ sacrificial death and resurrection (see the description below).
