by Hilga

Servings: 18 servings

INGREDIENTS

1 pkg. active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (110-115°F)
1 cup warm milk (110-115°F)
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 tsp. salt
2 eggs
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tbsp. grated orange peel
5-1/4 cups all-purpose flour

Orange Icing:
1 cup confectioner's sugar
2 tbsp. orange juice
1 tsp. grated orange peel

INSTRUCTIONS

In a mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add the next 7 ingredients and 3 cups flour; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured board; knead until smooth, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 2 hours. Punch dough down, roll into a 16x10 rectangle, about 1/2-inch thick. Cut into 10x3/4 strips; roll lightly and tie into a knot. Place on greased baking sheets; tuck the ends under. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake at 400°F for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Cool on wire racks. Combine icing ingredients; drizzle over rolls.
