Orange rolls!

So they don't look very yummy from my picture, but they are delicious. I took most of the rolls to young womens on sunday and the leaders and the girls thought they were great. There were two left. Here is the recipe:

1 dinner roll recipe (below)

1/2 cup softened butter or margarine

1 cup sugar

2 Tbsp freshly squeezed orange juice

grated orange rind from two large oranges ( I recommend doublying this mixture to spread on dough)

orange glaze:

mix together 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar, 3 Tbsp oranged juice, and 1/2 tsp. grated orange zest.

Follow directions below for dinner rolls. Combine butter, sugar, orange juice, and orange zest in a bowl and mix well. When dough is ready to shape into rolls, divide it in thirds. Roll each portion into a rectangle. Spread mixture over dough. Starting with long side, roll up jelly roll style. seal edges well, then cut with dental floss into 1 inch slices.

Place on a greased baking sheet. Let rise until dough doubles. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes. remove rolls from pans and drizzle with orange glaze. The orange zest is a necessity. Makes them so much better.
