These yummy little things have become a Christmas morning tradition. I throw the dough ingredients into my bread machine on Christmas Eve, put the dough in the refrigerator until the next day, then I quickly roll them out on Christmas morning. (The dough is so soft that it needs to be refrigerated before working with it anyway so it works out well.) But whether you make these or not on Christmas Day, they are still way, way yummy! (sorry this is such a terrible picture, I promise IRL they look fantastic!)
Orange Rolls
1 cup warm milk
2 eggs
4 TBSP softened butter
4 TBSP sugar
1 1/2 tsp salt
3 1/2 cups flour
1 TBSP yeast
Put ingredients in bread machine and select dough setting. Refrigerate. When ready to roll out, spread with orange past (below) and cut out as you would cinnamon rolls. Bake in muffin tins or on a cookie sheet. Let rise for 30 minutes. Bake @ 350 for 20 minutes. Glaze while still hot.
Orange Paste:
1/4 cup melted butter
3/4 cup sugar
grated rind of 1 orange
Glaze:
Squeeze juice from 1/2 of orange and blend well with /2 cup cream cheese frosting. (I just use the frosting in the tub.)
The roll in the picture was baked in a 9x13 pan, but my absolute favorite is baking them in silicone muffin cups. For some reason, those make orange rolls to die for!

Will definitely be trying these too...
We always eat these on Christmas morning to hold us over until breakfast, since we get up so early. I'll have to venture out and try to make them from scratch this year.
My word verification is scratcho-- funny.
