Orange Rolls

 Original recipe found here

1 recipe of perfect bread

Filling:

1/2 cup butter, softened

1 cup white sugar

2 TBSP orange zest

Orange Glaze:

4 oz cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup butter, softened 

1 cup powdered sugar

1-2 TBSP orange juice

Directions:

1) Follow instructions for making bread dough.

2) In a small mixing bowl, combine the butter, sugar, and orange zest. Spread in an even layer on top of the dough, leaving 1/2 inch on the top edge. Roll up tightly lengthwise so you have one long roll. Use a sharp serrated knife to cut the dough into 12 even slices.

3) Place the slices into a lightly greased 9x13 pan. Cover and let rise 30 to 45 minutes.

4) Preheat oven to 350°. Bake the rolls for about 20-25 minutes, until just kissed with brown on top.

5) While the orange rolls are baking, make the cream cheese glaze by using a hand mixer to whip together cream cheese and butter in a bowl until light and fluffy. Whip in powdered sugar and orange extract. Add enough orange juice to achieve a soft, easily spreadable consistency.

6) Frost warm rolls.
