Sour Cream Orange Rolls
"Try these rolls this Holiday season for a breakfast, dinner, or snack treat
you will not soon forget! Recipe makes 24 rolls. Two rolls make a nice sweet
serving. "
1 package active dry yeast (about 3 teaspoons)
1/2 cup warm water
1 3/4 cup sugar
1 cup sour cream
2 eggs
3 1/2 cups flour
1 cup melted butter
1 /2 teaspoon salt
1 orange
Stir yeast into warm water. Add 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup sour cream, eggs, 6
tablespoons melted butter, salt and approximately 2 cups flour. Beat well.
Gradually add enough more flour to make a soft dough that may be kneaded. Knead
until smooth and elastic. Place dough in greased clean bowl, cover, and allow to
rise until double in bulk.
Knead dough to remove excess air. Divide into 2 parts. On a lightly oiled
surface roll each part into a 12 inch circle. Brush each circle with 1
tablespoon butter. Combine 1/2 cup sugar with grated rind from 1 orange.
Sprinkle orange sugar on dough circles. Cut each circle into 12 wedges. Starting
at the wide end of each circle roll each wedge into crescent roll. Place on
greased baking sheet and allow to rise 10-15 minutes.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Prepare glaze while rolls are baking. Pour glaze over rolls after removing from
oven.
Glaze:
Combine 1/2 cup butter with 3/4 cup sugar, 1/2 cup sour cream and 2 tablespoons
orange juice in sauce pan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil, stirring
constantly, for 3 minutes. Pour glaze over roll immediately after removing rolls
from oven. AUTHOR: Chyrel
