Orange Rolls

These orange rolls are so yummy and are great for breakfast, snack time or dessert! Enjoy!

Easy Butterflake Orange Rolls


12 Rhodes Texas Rolls, thawed but still cold
Zest from 1 large orange
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup butter, melted
Icing:
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon butter, melted
2-3 tablespoons fresh orange juice

Directions:
Cut each Texas roll into 5 equal pieces. Flatten each piece slightly. In a small bowl, combine orange zest and sugar. Dip both sides of each roll piece into butter and then orange sugar mixture. Stack five pieces together and place, on their sides, in a well sprayed muffin cup. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until double in size. Remove wrap and bake at 350°F 15-20 minutes. Remove from pan immediately and place on cooling rack. Combine icing ingredients and mix well. Brush over rolls while still warm.

*** I made 14 rolls and needed to double the butter and cinnamon sugar ingredients!
