Description

Ingredients

• 3 (.25 ounce) packets active dry yeast (2 and ¼ Tablespoons)
• 1 and ¾ cups warm water (approximately 110 degrees)
• ½ cup honey
• ½ cup melted butter
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 4 to 6 cups flour, plus more if needed
• ½ cup (1 stick) butter, at room temperature
• 1 cup sugar
• 3 Tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 3 Tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice
• ½ cup heavy cream (more as needed to reach desired consistency)
• 1 teaspoon orange extract (optional)

Directions

• Preheat oven to 170 degrees, and then turn it off. You want a warm oven to help the dough proof.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the warm water and yeast. Allow it to sit for 5 minutes until yeast begins to bubble.
• Add the honey, melted butter, salt and eggs. Use a whisk to combine.
• Using the dough hook on your stand mixer, slowly add 4 cups of flour and beat to combine. Mixture will be wet.
• Then add ½ cup at a time until dough pulls away from sides of bowl but is still slightly sticky. This will be a wet dough, so dont add too much flour. Your finger should stick to the dough but shouldnt pull any dough away with it.
• Move dough to a well-oiled or buttered bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and place in warm oven. (Make sure the oven is off now!)
• Allow dough to double in bulk, which will take about 45 minutes.
• After dough has risen, punch it down and roll it in to a large sheet, approximately 16x24 inches.
• Spread filling (see below) over the dough, then tightly roll into a jellyroll shape, starting at the long end of the dough.
• Using string, floss or a sharp knife, cut into 1-inch pieces and place into a buttered 9x13 pan.
• Cover with a towel, and place back into warm oven. Allow to rise for a second time, about 20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees, and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
• Drizzle glaze (see below) over the top of the warm rolls, and enjoy!
• Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Spread evenly over rolled dough.
• With a whisk, combine all ingredients until smooth. Glaze should be thin enough to pour, but thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. If necessary, add more cream or sugar to achieve desired consistency.
