Ingredients

  • 12 Rhodes frozen roll dough
  • ¼ cup butter softened
  • 2 Tablespoons orange zest
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • fresh orange juice

Instructions

  • Let the frozen dough thaw out on the counter for about two hours.
  • Once the dough is workable, but still cool, roll the dough balls into ropes and then tie a knot.
  • Dip the knots in softened butter.
  • Place rolls in a greased pan and let rise for at least 40 minutes or until doubled in size.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for about 15-20 minutes, until they are golden.
  • Let the rolls cool. Make a glaze by combining powdered sugar, orange zest, and fresh orange juice. Whisk until smooth. Start with just 2 Tablespoons of orange juice then slowly add more. You want your consistency to become a glaze.
  • With a spoon ice the rolls with the orange glaze.
