Ingredients

• 16 oz refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tbsp orange zest
• 0.5 cup shredded sweetened coconut
• 0.75 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tbsp orange juice, freshly squeezed
• 0.5 tsp vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into the individual triangles.

Step 3

Arrange the dough triangles in a circular pattern on the parchment-lined baking sheet with the pointed tips facing outward, overlapping slightly to form a ring shape. Press the overlapping edges lightly to seal.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar, orange zest, and shredded coconut until well combined.

Step 5

Brush the melted butter evenly over the crescent dough.

Step 6

Sprinkle the orange coconut mixture generously over the buttered dough, ensuring even coverage.

Step 7

Carefully fold the pointed ends of the dough triangles over the filling towards the center of the ring. Pinch the edges lightly to seal.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the crescent ring is golden brown and puffed.

Step 9

While the crescent ring is baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, orange juice, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.

Step 10

Once baked, remove the crescent ring from the oven and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes.

Step 11

Drizzle the orange glaze generously over the crescent ring.

Step 12

Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy this citrusy, coconut-filled delight!
