These rich rolls are perfect for brunch when served with fresh fruit and just-perked coffee, notes Becky Bobier of South Sioux City, Nebraska. They start with convenient crescent rolls and get their special flavor from coconut and grated orange peel.
Ingredients:
1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1/3 cup flaked coconut
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon grated orange peel
glaze:
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons butter
Directions:
1. Separate crescent rolls; spread with butter. In a bowl, combine coconut, sugar and orange peel. Set aside 2 tablespoons for topping. Sprinkle remaining coconut mixture over butter.
2. Roll up and place, point side down, on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 375° for 16-18 minutes or until golden brown.
3. Meanwhile, combine glaze ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil; boil for 3 minutes or until mixture is glossy. Cool slightly; pour over warm rolls. Sprinkle with reserved coconut mixture. Yield: 8 rolls.
