16+ Easter Tomb Cookies Recipe Get Ready To Indulge!

The Ingredients You Will Need

For the Cookies:

• 2 cups of all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup of granulated sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

For the Decoration:

• 12 large marshmallows
• 1/4 cup of melted chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup of shredded coconut
• 12 chocolate crosses (optional)

How to Make the Cookies

Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.

1. In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set this aside.
2. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
3. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, you can add a splash of milk to help it come together.
4. Using your hands, roll the dough into 12 equal-sized balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space in between each one.
5. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden. Let them cool for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Decorating the Cookies

Now comes the fun part – decorating the cookies to resemble the tomb of Jesus Christ. Follow these simple steps to create your own Easter tomb cookies:

1. Place one marshmallow on top of each cookie. This will represent the stone that was rolled away from the tomb.
2. Using a spoon, drizzle the melted chocolate over the marshmallow and down the sides of the cookie. This represents the oils used to anoint Jesus' body.
3. Sprinkle shredded coconut on top of the melted chocolate to represent the linen cloth that Jesus was wrapped in.
4. If desired, place a chocolate cross on top of the marshmallow to symbolize the cross that Jesus was crucified on.
5. Let the chocolate set before serving and enjoying your delicious and meaningful Easter tomb cookies.

These Easter tomb cookies are a wonderful addition to your Easter celebrations. They not only taste great, but they also serve as a reminder of the true meaning of Easter – the resurrection of Jesus Christ. So, gather your loved ones and make these cookies together to add a special touch to your Easter festivities.
