Pani PoPo Coconut 🥥 Sweet Rolls

This crazy simple Samoan sweet treat Pani PoPo combines regular Yeast Rolls with a Coconut Milk 🥥 Sweet gooey glaze that goes on both before and after the bake.

Ingredients

• • 20 frozen dinner rolls
  • 10 ounces coconut milk
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 tbsp. Coconut or Vanilla extract

  
  

Instructions

• Coat a 9x13 glass baking dish with cooking spray and arrange rolls evenly to thaw (if doing homemade rolls, roll dough into golf-ball size balls and arrange the same way).
• Cover with plastic wrap sprayed with cooking spray (to keep dough from sticking to the plastic wrap). Allow to rise until doubled in size.         

   This can take 4-5 hours.  If you need the rolls to thaw quicker, follow the quick-rise instructions on the frozen roll packaging.
• Pre-heat oven to 350-degrees. In a medium bowl whisk until smooth the sugar, extract and coconut milk together.
• Pour about 2/3 of the coconut mixture over the rolls and bake for 20-30 minutes (or according to package/dough recipe instructions) or until golden brown and dough is baked through.  

  

  
  
• Remove from oven and pour remaining coconut mixture evenly over the top of the rolls.
• The rolls should be sticky and gooey on the bottom (read notes above). Can be served upside down or right-side up.
