It was last fall when Jason Kelce, Travis Kelce’s little brother, made an appearance on the YouTube show called Mythical Kitchen.

In that episode, Jason spilled the beans about a dish that appears on their Thanksgiving table every year – his mom’s dinner rolls, which are famous in their family.

Apparently, Mama Kelce likes to switch up the meat she makes for Thanksgiving, but she forever makes those dinner rolls, which Jason refers to as the “Mama Kelce Dinner Rolls.”

Mama Kelce based her dinner rolls on a 54-year-old recipe that won the Pillsbury Bake-Off, called the Magic Marshmallow Crescent Puffs.

So, chances are good Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift will be enjoying these bad boys in just a week if they’re going to Mama Kelce’s house. Let’s get into how you can make them, too!

Ingredients For The Rolls:

  • 2 cans of crescent roll dough (each can is 8 ounces)
  • 16 large marshmallows
  • 1/4 cup melted butter (melt this in a little bowl)
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons of flour
  • 1 teaspoon of cinnamon

Ingredients For The Glaze:

  • 2 or 3 teaspoons of milk
  • 1/4 cup chopped nuts
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees; spray down a muffin baking pan (the one with 16 spots) with some cooking spray so your dinner rolls won’t stick in the oven.

Grab a small-sized bowl and mix together your cinnamon, flour, and sugar. Next, roll out the crescent roll dough and pull apart 16 different triangles.

Take your first triangle, and dip one of the marshmallows into your melted butter before placing it in the sugar mix you just made.

Put the marshmallow on your triangle close to the upper point part. Hold down the marshmallow and roll your dough up.

Be sure to pinch all around the edges to firmly seal your marshmallow inside. Next, dip a side of your little roll into the melted butter and put that buttered side face-down in the muffin tin.

When you have your baking pan full, put it in the oven and bake your rolls for 12 to 15 minutes. You will know they’re done when they turn a golden brown color. Take them out, let them cool, and then put all of the rolls on a cooling rack.

Finally, let’s get to the glaze. Take out another small-sized bowl and add in the milk, confectioners’ sugar, and vanilla. Mix together. If you want a thicker glaze, use 3 teaspoons of milk, but if you like it on the thinner side, use 2 teaspoons instead.

Drizzle your glaze over the rolls while they’re still warm. You can add the chopped nuts on the top of the rolls if you like that, and you’re done!

So what do you think? Will you be making Mama Kelce’s famous dinner rolls for Thanksgiving?
