Ingredients
- 20 frozen dinner rolls depending on size (see the note above for homemade rolls)
- 10 oz. coconut milk (1 can)
- 1 c. sugar
Instructions
- Coat a 9×13 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 the dough from sticking to the plastic wrap).
- Allow rising 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 bowl, combine coconut milk and sugar and whisk until sugar is dissolved.
- 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.
