Ingredients

  • 3 cans refrigerated crescent dough
  • 3 tablespoons butter + more to butter the pan
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 1 ½ cups sweetened flaked coconut
  • 1 ½ cups mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°.
  • Butter a muffin tin generously and set aside.
  • Unroll the crescent dough onto a clean surface. Press 4 triangles together firmly to create 2 rectangular pieces of dough with each can of crescents.
  • Slice each rectangle lengthwise into two strips.
  • Spread each dough strip evenly with butter, then sprinkle generously with brown sugar, sweetened flaked coconut, and mini chocolate chips.
  • Gently roll up each dough strip, then place each roll into the prepared muffin tin. Gently mash down each roll slightly to fill muffin cup.
  • Scoop up any leftover filling that falls out during rolling and sprinkle it over the tops of the cruffins.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown.

Notes

  • Storage: Store coconut cruffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Refrigerate to keep fresh up to one week.
  • Variations: Swap mini chocolate chips for white chocolate chips or drizzle with caramel sauce for extra sweetness. Add sliced almonds to the filling for extra crunch.
