Wonderful flavour! I found the dough a little soft, and added a bit of extra flour when turning it out. I'll add a bit more to the dough initially the next time. I received many compliments for these rolls.

Wonderful! I made a cream cheese frosting with orange zest to top it off.

These are very good. I did change the process the ingredients stayed pretty much the same. I did have to add 4 cups of flour for the dough to come together which is a lot! And I also doubled the zest called for. After mixing the flour with the yeast mixture I kneaded the dough for 8 minutes until it was smooth. Then I let the dough rise outside of the fridge covered with a towel for 1 1/2 hours. Deflate the dough, separate into 2 equal portions, roll out spread butter mixture on the dough, roll up and cut. Then I placed them in the fridge for the night covered with plastic wrap, in the morning I took the rolls out and set them on the counter for about 30 minutes while the oven preheated. Then baked. I did this because I did not want to get up so early to roll out the dough and let it rest. It worked perfectly the way I did it. I did not get 30 rolls because I cut them much thicker than called for. I got 22 large rolls. For a frosting I creamed together an 8oz cream cheese and 1/2 c butter (both softened) added 1 teaspoon orange extract, 3 tablespoons Orange Juice and 2 c powdered sugar. Then thinned it down with additional oj. The icing was really good on these! Thanks for the recipe.

I tried several methods and the original recipe is the best method. I ended up baking them in round cakes pans instead of muffin pans and found them to be much better that way. I wanted to be able to serve them at a party for 36 women hot out of the oven so the method I finally came up with was to bake them off and then freeze them. I reheated them for about 25 minutes at 325 and then iced them with a basic powered sugar icing,(powdered sugar, vanilla & milk). It was alot of work to make that many rolls but it was so worth the effort. The look on the faces when they took that first bite was like they had just arrived in heaven!! I am still hearing from the women about them. Freezing them is a wonderful way to be able to have them often and they were just as if they had just come fresh out of the oven. Make them for your family and freinds and just watch the reaction!!! A cooks dream!!! Note: I always have to add quite a bit of flour.

BEST ORANGE ROLL EVER!!!!! I added some Betty Crocker cream cheese frosting & gave it to friends for Christmas. No need to tell them how much butter is really in them.

very light and tasty roll, I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out good however next time I make these I will use orange marmalade instead of orange zest. Other than that this is a great roll that I will make again and again.

Pretty good. My husband has been wanting Orange Rolls for a while now so I decided to get them a try for Father's Day. He liked them, but he likes Orange Rolls sweeter and with frosting.

This needed more flour, DON'T let the dough just be sticky, add more flour. If you don't add more flour then the dough is extremely difficult to work with because it's too soft. The orange is a nice change from cinnamon. I made an orange glaze with orange juice and powdered sugar to go over the top. I prefered this cold rather than warm.

Holy Heavenly Goodness. Light as air, delicate little buns of orangey sweet yeasty rolls...what's not to like? I did not find the dough to be difficult at all, it was cold enough that it rolled beautifully. Edit* I made these a second time on a very humid day and my dough required a significant amount of extra flour. As with any yeast bread, the amount of flour can be greatly affected by the amount of humidity in the air.

This one is a keeper. My husband and I loved this recipe. The rolls were nice and very light. Since it is just the two of us I had to scale it down to 12 instead of 48 and found that I had to add about a cup of extra flour because the dough looked more like batter with only 1 1/2 cups flour. Light organge icing was great on them. This will definitely become a Sunday morning treat for many years to come. Thanks for sharing!

These rolls are excellent! I had to add about 1 cup of flour, but I kept everything else the same. I topped them with cream cheese icing flavored with OJ and some orange zest. The orange rolls actually were gone before the cinnamon rolls at a church brunch. Rave reviews by all!

the rolls were good, but not great. We'll keep looking. May have been better if we had a cream cheese icing ontop.

These have a very nice light Orange flavor that I didn't find too sweet at all. The dough is quite hard to work with and while they are wonderful fresh out of the oven we didn't like them very well the next day. If I were to make again I would definitely make less.

These rolls are so delicious. The delicate orange flavor makes a nice counterpoint to the richness of the buttery dough. Almost like eating cotton candy, they are so tender! I iced them with the Orange Cream Cheese Frosting, from this website, and they are irresistible. I will also use this recipe for cinnamon rolls and dinner rolls. Outstanding!

Waaay too sweet for my boyfriend and even for me, which says something. Will definitely make again, but will reduce sugar and maybe try cinnamon instead of orange. I topped these with "glory icing" (confectioner's sugar, melted butter and milk) which was a great addition.

I scaled this to 24 servings. I think most yeast dough recipes don't get the flour proportions correct when you scale them smaller, and I had to add a good bit more flour to get a dough that held together (but was still very soft). I thought it might be hard to work with, but the butter keeps it from sticking to everything. After rising, I rolled it out, spread the filling on it and formed a log and sliced with dental floss. I ended up with 12 rolls. I let the formed rolls rise in the refrigerator overnight, in the morning took them out 30 minutes before baking and baked them. I used a cream cheese icing. Delicious!
