Orange Coconut Sweet Rolls

This is based on a Pillsbury Bake-Off winner from the 60's. The amount of sweet dough you need is a 3 cups of flour recipe. I use 1/4 of Paddy's Buttermilk Sourdough bread dough. The rolls are risen and baked in a 9 X 13 pan so they come together into a delicious coffeecake. Do not skip the glaze; it makes this recipe great.

Rolls: 1 recipe of sweet dough that calls for about 3 cups offlour. Just use your favorite.

Filling:
3/4 cup sugar
2/3 cup coconut
2 tablespoons orange rind
2 Tablespoons melted butter to brush dough

Boiled Glaze: 3/4 cup sugar
2 Tablespoons orange juice
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup sour cream
(I also add 1/16 teas orange oil)

Topping: 1/4 cup coconut

After your dough has risen in a bowl, punch down and divide in half. Roll each into a 12" circle. Brush each circle with a tablespoon of melted butter and sprinkle each with half of the filling. Cut each circle into 12 wedges and roll up starting with wide end. Place the 24 "crescents" in 3 rows in a greased 9 X 13 pan, point sides down.

Cover and let rise until light and doubled, about 1 hour depending on the warmth of your kitchen. 15 minutes before they are doubled, preheat oven to 350.

Bake 350 for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.

While they bake, prepare orange glaze. Combine ingredients in small saucepan and once melted, boil for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Pour hot glaze over hot rolls in pan. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of coconut.
