ORANGE ICING
- 1/2 cup Splenda granular, sugar substitute (Homemade Powdered Sugar With Splenda and Glazes)
- 2-3 teaspoons orange juice
- In a large bowl stir together 1 cup of the flour and the yeast; 2 tbs Splenda, set aside.

- Beat with an electric mixer on low to medium speed for 30 seconds, scraping sides of bowl.
- Beat on high speed for 3 minutes.
- Stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can.
- Turn out dough onto a floured surface.
- Knead in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough that is smooth and elastic (3 to 5 minutes total).
- Shape dough into a ball and place in a lightly greased bowl; turn once. Cover; let rise in a warm place until double (1 to 1-1/2 hours).
- Meanwhile, for filling, in a small bowl stir together cranberries, remaining Splenda, pecans, orange peel, and spice; set aside.

- Cover; let rise in a warm place until nearly double (about 30 minutes).
- Bake in a 375 degree F oven about 20 minutes or until golden brown (if necessary, cover loosely with foil the last 10 minutes to prevent overbrowning).
