Coconut Rolls (Samoan Pani Popo)

Samoan coconut rolls called pani popo are simply to die for. The roll is hot and soft and the sweetness from the coconut milk and sugar simply takes these babies to a heavenly place. You are more than welcome to make the rolls from scratch but honestly you can just pick up some frozen rolls from the freezer section of your grocery store and save yourself lots of time, which is how I made these.

12 dinner rolls
1 can coconut milk
½ cup sugar
cooking spray

Let thaw and rise per package instructions.

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C/160°C fan, Gas Mark 4). Coat a baking dish 9x13" with cooking spray and arrange the dough in the pan.

In a bowl mix together the sugar with the coconut milk and pour over the risen rolls.

Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Let cool if you can stand to wait and serve warm.
