Ingredients

1 (8 ounce) tube refrigerated crescent rolls
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon cardamom
1/8 teaspoon salt
8 marshmallows
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
 
Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray or butter a 12-cup muffin tin.

  1. Break open the rolls and separate them into triangles.
  2. Whisk together the sugar, cinnamon, cardamon and salt in a small bowl.
  1. To assemble the rolls, dip a marshmallow in butter followed by cinnamon sugar. Place on a triangle and bring dough up around the marshmallow, sealing the edges well.

Note: Sealing well is important—if the edges aren’t tight the marshmallow will “explode” out of the roll.

  1. Grasp the roll by the seam side and dip the other side in butter and cinnamon sugar. Place the roll seam-side down, cinnamon side up, in the prepared muffin tin.
  2. Repeat with the remaining marshmallows and dough.
  3. Sprinkle any remaining cinnamon sugar on top of rolls.
  4. Bake for 13–15 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Eat them while they are warm!
