Frosted Orange Rolls

Frosted Orange Rolls For the dough: 1 package active dry yeast ¾ cup warm water 1½ cups warm milk ½ cup sugar, divided 1½ teaspoons salt 4½ cups flour, divided ¼ cup shortening, melted For the orange icing: 4½ tablespoons butter, softened 1½ tablespoons orange zest 3 tablespoons orange juice 2¼ cups powdered sugar In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add milk, ¼ cup of the sugar and salt. Stir in 3 cups of the flour. Mixture will be runny. Let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour. Stir in the remaining ¼ cup of sugar and shortening. Add remaining 1½ cups of flour. Dough will still be wet - this is ok, don't be tempted to add any more flour! Let rise until double, about an hour. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, cream butter for icing. Add orange zest, juice and powdered sugar and beat until well incorporated! After second rise, dump dough on a well-floured surface and divide in half. With a floured rolling pin, roll each half into a large rectangle, about 18 inches long. Spread each rectangle with ⅓ of the icing. Roll up into a log from the long side. Cut each roll into 9 sections (about 2 inches each). Place cut rolls into a greased 9x13-inch pan*. Let rise until doubled. Preheat oven to 350 degrees! After the final rise, bake rolls for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before frosting with the remaining icing. If freezing, allow to cool completely before cutting apart and placing in zip-top bags - you can fit about 9 rolls in a gallon-sized zip-top bag. To reheat, remove individual rolls from the freezer and reheat in the microwave for about 30-45 seconds per roll (length of time in the microwave will vary based on the strength of your microwave and the size of the roll).
