Ingredients
1loaf frozen bread doughcompletely thawed
1stick buttersoftened
1tablespoonorange juice concentrate
1tablespoonorange zest
2-3tablespoonswhite sugar
Instructions
Place dough on floured surface and roll out to a 17 x 6 inch rectangle (This is approximate, you can eyeball it- see post for helpful tips to make rolling it out easier).
In a mixing bowl, place softened butter, orange zest, and 1 tablespoon orange juice concentrate. Mix with electric mixer until well blended.
Spread orange butter over dough, leaving about 1/2 an inch all around on the outsides. Sprinkle with white sugar. Cut down the middle lengthwise with a pizza cutter (See photos in tutorial for visual).
Beginning in the center, roll each side up into a log and press with hands to seal. Cut each log into 12 slices.
Place slices in greased 24 cup mini muffin tin and cover. Allow to rise in warm place until doubled, 30 minutes to an hour.
Bake in 350 oven for twenty minutes, or until lightly browned.
Glaze
1/2 cup confectioner's sugar
2 tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate
Stir together glaze ingredients until smooth and creamy. Brush over hot rolls as soon as they come out of the oven. Enjoy!
Remaining orange juice can be placed in a zipper seal bag and frozen until the next time you make orange rolls.
