Yum! Made these the night before for Christmas breakfast, then let rise and bake in the morning. A nice change from cinnamon rolls, lots of orange flavor. A microplane makes grating orange rind so quick and easy. Used butter instead of shortening, a little extra flour, and the bread machine to knead and rise. Formed 16 rolls, used a 13x9 pan. Awesome! Thanks for sharing the recipe!

    I made these for my family one Sunday morning and we loved them! Since it is only me, my husband, and our toddler at home we had lots of extras so I gave some to my sister in law who lives next door and her family loved them too! They were a hit all around!

    I added orange zest and orange juice to the glaze and added some cream cheese. This made the glaze into more of a frosting. It was delicious. These rolls are really good! I found the recipe to be very comprehensive for someone like myself who has worked very little with yeast. My BF loved these rolls. I would highly suggest this recipe! Thank you for posting this wonderful recipe.

    I made these this morning for a group meeting of our condo club. The meeting was for 3 PM. By 3:30 there wasn't a single one left!!! Everyone went crazy over these! Several took the recipe home. They are very light and very very delicious!
