Ok, here you go. These rolls are to DIE for. They are pretty time consuming, but so worth the wait. I have tried them twice to get them just right (make sure you have 2 to 3 pans). The first time I tried, I made the rolls too big and fit them all in one round pan. they didn't cook all the way through and were exploding out the sides. But, I think 3 pans is the lucky number!
I hope you enjoy them. Oh, and if you haven't tried the chewy pretzel bites you really should. We just made some for breakfast - so yummy!!



Ingredients
■FOR ROLLS:
■½ whole Recipe Of "Cinnamon Roll Dough" (recipe below)
■8 Tablespoons Orange Marmalade (can find at Walmart)
■½ cups Melted Butter
■1 cup Brown Sugar
■½ teaspoons Kosher Salt

■ORANGE GLAZE:
■2 pounds Powdered Sugar
■6 Tablespoons Melted Butter
■½ cups Milk
■½ cups Orange Juice
■1 dash Salt

(cinnamon roll recipe)
Mix 1/2 quart of whole milk, 1/2 cup of vegetable oil, and 1/2 cup of sugar in a pan. "Scald" the mixture (heat until just before the boiling point.) Turn off heat and leave to cool 45 minutes to 1 hour. Go fold laundry or sculpt or play Twister with your mailman or something.

When the mixture is lukewarm to warm, but NOT hot, sprinkle in 1 package Active Dry Yeast. Let this sit for a minute so the yeast gets all warm and moist and happy. Then add 4 cups of all-purpose flour. Stir mixture together. Cover and let sit for at least an hour.

Now add 1/2 more cup of flour, 1/2 heaping teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 "scant" (less than a full) teaspoon baking soda and 1/2 heaping tablespoon of salt.

Stir mixture together. At this point, you could cover the dough and put it in the fridge until you need it—overnight or even a day or two, if necessary. Just keep your eye on it and if it starts to splurge out of the pan, just punch it down. Or, of course, you can just go ahead and make the rolls.

Preparation Instructions for Orange Rolls

Roll out dough into a long rectangle. Spread marmalade over the top. Pour on butter, and then sprinkle on the brown sugar evenly. Sprinkle with salt.

Beginning at the long side farthest from you, roll the dough in a long roll toward you; begin careful to keep it tucked tightly. Pinch edge to seal.

Cut rolls into 1 to 1 1/2 inch rolls and place into buttered pans. Allow to rise for at least 20 minutes.

Bake at 375 degrees for 15 to 18 minutes, or until golden brown (but not overly brown).

While baking, mix together the ingredients for the orange glaze, thinning with more milk or orange juice to make mixture thin enough to be pourable.

Immediately drizzle orange glaze over the top. Serve warm or at room temperature.
