Ingredients
Rolls:
1 Tbsp. unsalted melted butter, plus more for baking dish
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup flaked sweetened coconut
zest of 1 orange

1/4 recipe Granny Foster’s Refrigerator Roll Dough, prepared through Step5.

Coconut Pinwheel Glaze:
1/4 cup  sugar
1/4 cup  sour cream
2 Tbsp.  freshly squeezed orange juice
2 Tbsp.  unsalted butter
Instructions
1. Prepare 1/4 of the recipe for Granny Foster’s Refrigerator Roll Dough through Step 5.

2. Preheat oven to 350 deg. Lightly butter a 9 inch round glass baking dish set aside.

3. In a small bowl, combine the sugar, coconut, and orange zest set aside.

4. Using a rolling pin, roll dough into a 12 inch round, about 1/4 inch thick. Brush with melted butter set aside. Sprinkle sugar mixture evenly over dough. Cut into 12 equal pie-shaped wedges. Roll up wedges, beginning at the wide end. Arrange wedges in a pinwheel pattern in prepared baking dish. Cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let rise until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.

5. Bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.

6. In the meantime prepare Coconut Pinwheel Glaze:
   a.  In a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Increase the heat to high, and bring mixture to a boil. Cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes more.

7. Drizzle glaze over pinwheels.
