Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- Cooking spray, as needed
- 1/4 cup (50 g) granulated sugar
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 (8-oz) tube crescent rolls (8 triangles)
- 8 large marshmallows
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Prepare Oven and Pan: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan lightly with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until evenly combined.
- Prepare Crescent Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 individual triangles.
- Coat Marshmallows: Dip each marshmallow into the melted butter, then toss it in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat thoroughly.
- Wrap Marshmallows: Place a coated marshmallow inside each crescent dough triangle. Roll up the dough, pinching the sides tightly around the marshmallow to seal completely. Gently roll the sealed dough ball in your hands to form a tight, smooth ball shape.
- Final Coating: Dip each rolled dough ball back into the melted butter, and then roll again in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat the outside.
- Arrange in Pan: Place the coated crescent rolls in the prepared cake pan, spacing them evenly.
- Bake: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and feel firm to the touch.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the pan from the oven and let the rolls cool slightly before serving so the melted marshmallow center sets slightly.
Notes
- Ensure the dough is sealed tightly around the marshmallow to prevent leakage during baking.
- Use large marshmallows for best results and easy wrapping.
- For a festive twist, you can add a drop of vanilla or almond extract to the melted butter before dipping.
- Serve warm for the best gooey texture and flavor experience.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat gently before serving.
