Orange Rolls

Orange Rolls

Sweet Roll Dough

1 pkg. Yeast
½ cup warm water
½ cup lukewarm milk
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup margarine or butter, softened
1 tsp. Salt
1 egg
3 ½ to 4 cups flour

Topping

3 cups powdered sugar
6 Tbsp. Margarine or butter
2 Tbsp. Grated orange peel
4 Tbsp. Orange juice


Soften yeast in warm water. Stir in milk, sugar, margarine, salt, egg and 2 cups of flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to make a dough easy to handle. Knead on a flour covered surface for about 5 minutes, adding flour as needed. Place in greased bowl and let rise for till double. Punch down dough, roll to rectangle and spread with half the topping. Roll up tightly and slice into 24 pieces. Place on greased baking sheets and let rise till double (or close). Bake at 375 for 20 to 25 minutes. Frost with remaining orange mixture while still warm.

This can easily be divided in half. Or you can make the regular amount of dough, half the topping and then have orange rolls and dinner rolls. For the gluten free version just replace the dough with a gluten free dough and shape as best you can :)
