Orange Rolls

Around this time of year, when oranges are plentiful, I have fond memories of my Aunt Debbie's delicious rolls.

4 T. yeast
1 c. warm water
1 T. sugar
Dissolve yeast in warm water and sugar.
After it has risen add:
2 1/2 c. buttermilk
4 eggs
5 c. flour (plus whatever it takes for it to pull away from the bowl)
1 c. butter
1 c. sugar
4 t. baking powder
4 t. salt
Blend 30 seconds on low speed, 2 min. on medium scrape often.
Take out of bowl and let sit on lightly floured surface for 10 min.
Separate into four and shape into rectangles.

Filling / Frosting

3/4 c. butter
3/4 c. orange rind
1/2 c. orange juice concentrate or juice from orange
6 c. powdered sugar

Put frosting on rectangle and roll. Cut with thread to make rolls.
Save some to put on top of rolls when they come out of the oven. You may want to add a little milk to make it more like a glaze.

Bake at 350 for 15 min. to 25 possibly.
