Panipopo: Coconut Buns


Last night we made Panipopo, a Hawaiian dessert. We were introduced to it by one of our fave missionary, sister Soliai (she's from Hawaii if you haven't guessed!). We loved it so much we asked her for a recipe!

I had been meaning to make this for a while but just didn't get to it. So last night we finally decided to just go. It was pretty easy. My kids could pretty much do it themselves, if they wanted to.
buy these and let them thaw and rise on their own. I lined mine 3 a roll, which came out big so next time i'm trying 4 a roll.
see? They come already pre-rolled so you don't have to do anything!

To make sauce!:
you'll need a can of coconut milk. Heat over medium heat and add sugar to taste. Depends on how sweet you want it.
Pour the sauce all over lined rolls. Don't use all of it. Just half.
You will need to use the other half for when it's almost done.
When rolls are cover with sauce bake it at 350 degrees.
Once rolls are a little golden brown (almost done) pour remaining sauce all over rolls.
Let cook. Once it's golden brown and ready bring it out and ENJOY! We sure did!

Well this is an attempt at a recipe so if you don't understand it, let me know.
Now go ahead and make it, I promise it'll be soo good! And it's easy too! So what will be your excuse? : )
