Dreamy Decadent Orange Rolls Recipes

Steps:

• For Dough:.
• Crumble yeast into large bowl, stir in water and sugar.
• Let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes.
• Stir shortening,egg and salt into yeast mixture.
• Add flour 1/4 cup at a time, stirring until mixture is smooth.
• Grease bowl; add dough, turning to coat entire surface.
• Cover and let rise in draft-free area until doubled in volumn, about 1 1/2 hours.
• For Filling:.
• Beat butter and sugar to blend well; stir in orange peel.
• To Assemble:.
• Roll dough out on generously floured surface to thickness of 3/16 inch.
• Spread filling evenly over dough; roll dough up into cylinder, as for jelly roll.
• Cut into 1 1/2-inch-thick slices.
• Set each slice in paper muffin liner; arrange on baking sheet.
• Cover with towel and let rise in warm draft-free area 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Bake rolls until lightly browned on top, about 12 minutes.

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in warm water in a large mixing bowl. Add the next five ingredients, mix well. Gradually stir in enough flour to make a soft dough. Mix well. Place dough in a greased bowl turning to grease the top. Cover and let rise until double in bulk, about 90 minutes to 2 hours.
• Combine sugar, coconut and orange rind. Set aside. Punch down dough. Knead until smooth and elastic on a floured surface. Divide dough in half. Roll each half into a rectangle. Brush with melted butter. Sprinkle coconut and orange rind mixture over top. Roll up from long side. Cut into 1 inch pieces, turn on end and place into a greased muffin tin. Cover with wax paper and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake in a preheated oven at 250 degrees F for about 15-20 minutes. Do not brown. While still warm drizzle with the glaze.

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine water, yeast & 1/2 cup flour, stirring to dissolve, then set aside for 5 to 10 minutes or just until yeast is activated (i.e. when mixture begins to bubble).
• While yeast is activating, in a separate bowl, combine the remaining flour & 2 1/2 tablespoons of sugar.
• With a fork work half of this flour/sugar mixture into the activated yeast, then add the shortening & egg until combined, before slowly adding the remaining flour/sugar mixture ~ At first it will be stringy, then very sticky as the flour is absorbed. Then stir in the salt.
• Move the dough to a floured surface, & with floured hands, gently knead the dough for about 5 minutes, adding ONLY as much flour to the sticky dough as needed to keep the dough from sticking to your fingers or the kneading surface. The finished dough should be tender, soft & slightly tacky.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F, then well-grease 2 muffin tins (12 muffins each).
• On a well-floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangle measuring 24 inches by 10 inches.
• In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1/3 cup of sugar & the orange zest.
• Brush the dough with the softened butter, then sprinkle the orange sugar mixture over the buttered surface.
• With your hands, roll the rectangle lengthwise into a tight tube, then cut the tube into 24 (1-inch) slices, using thread if possible, as it will slice more easily & cleanly than a knife. Roll the tube one-quarter turn after each slice so that the tube doesn't begin to flatten out.
• Place each of the slices into the prepared muffin tins, then cover loosely & set aside until rolls have doubled in size.
• Bake muffin trays 1 at a time for about 8 to 10 minutes, until rolls are puffed & golden, being sure to rotate the trays halfway through for even baking.
• Cool the rolls in the tins on a wire rack slightly, then unmold & serve warm.

Steps:

• Place all dough ingredients in bread machine in order recommended by manufacturer.
• Select DOUGH cycle and press Start.
• In separate bowl combine cinnamon and sugar for filling.
• After dough has finished, turn it out onto lightly floured surface and roll into a 16x24 rectangle.
• Spread dough with butter and sprinkle evenly with cinnamon and sugar mixture.
• Roll up dough and cut into 12 rolls.
• Place rolls in lightly greased 9x13 pan.
• Cover and let rise until almost doubled (about 30 min).
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Bake rolls for 14-16 minutes (do not overbake!).
• While rolls are baking, mix together frosting ingredients.
• Spread on rolls when they are still warm. (I heat the frosting up in the microwave a little so I can pour it on the rolls instead).

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in warm water in lg mixer bowl.
• Add orange peel, orange juice, sugar, salt, egg, butter and 1 1/2 c of the flour.
• Beat 30 seconds on low, scraping bowl constantly; increase speed to medium, beat 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally.
• Stir in enough of the remaining flour to make a dough easy to handle.
• Turn dough out onto floured surface and knead 5 minutes and dough is smooth and elastic.
• Cover; let rise in warm place until double, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours (dough is ready if an indentation remains when dough is touched).
• Punch dough down and, on a lightly floured surface, roll into a rectangle 15x9".
• Spread w/ 1 T butter and sprinkle w/ combined 2 T sugar and 1 t cinnamon.
• Roll up, beginning at one of the long sides; pinch edge of dough into roll to seal well; stretch to make roll even.
• Cut roll into 15 slices about 1" wide.
• Place slices slightly apart in a greased oblong baking pan, 13x9x2", or in greased muffin cups.
• Cover and let rise until double, about 30 minutes.
• Bake in a 375 degree preheated oven until rolls are golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes.
• If desired, mix together confectioner's sugar, orange juice, orange peel, and vanilla; frost while warm.
• Recipe is easily doubled.

Steps:

• Rolls:.
• Mix lukewarm water, yeast, and honey, stir to dissolve, and set aside.
• Heat milk over medium heat until almost boiling. Remove from heat and stir in the shortening to melt it. Allow to stand 5-10 minutes to cool to lukewarm.
• In a large bowl, mix milk (with shortening), salt, and 3 cups flour, then add yeast mixture. Beat thoroughly. Tent with a damp cloth and let rise 20 minutes in a warm place. It will be thick liquid at this stage, like pancake batter.
• Beat the eggs slightly. Add eggs, granulated sugar, 4 cups more flour, and 1 T. orange zest; mix thoroughly, then coat with flour and turn onto a floured board. Knead, sprinkling just enough flour to keep it from sticking, until dough ball can be handled without sticking to hands. Ball and return to bowl. Tent again and let rise another half-hour.
• Turn onto the board again, knead a little more, and divide in half. Flour surfaces and roll out each half, one at a time, to about 12x18 inches. Spread each with half the melted butter. Sprinkle half the brown sugar over the surface followed by pecans. (You can also add raisins, walnuts, and/or hazelnuts, and vary the amount of brown sugar.) Sprinkle with cinnamon.
• Starting from the long edge, roll up the sheet of dough with the sugar, cinnamon and nuts inside. Work the roll into a long uniform shape. With a sharp buttered knife, slice the roll into fifteen equal sections. Arrange them, spiral up, in five rows of three, in a greased 9x13 pan. (A little space between them is OK.).
• Tent and let rise until they fill the pan, about half an hour or somewhat more.
• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Bake in center of oven 22 minutes or until desired golden brown on top.
• Frosting:.
• While rolls are baking, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add orange juice directly to pan.
• Start adding powdered sugar about a cup at a time, beating with the mixer until sugar is all mixed inches.
• Remove from heat. Add orange zest and mix well. Quickly spread on rolls as soon as they are out of the oven.
