High Five Orange Rolls image

My son loves the orange rolls that come in a can. But he wanted them homemade. After trying a couple recipes and none of them meeting his approval, I came up with my own. After getting thumbs up AND a high five from my son, I finally had a recipe! These are made overnight and baked in the morning.

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1 cup warm milk
½ cup warm water
1 egg, beaten
½ cup orange juice
½ cup butter, melted
¼ cup instant vanilla pudding mix
1 tablespoon orange extract
5 cups bread flour, or more if needed
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup butter, softened
2 tablespoons grated orange zest
1 teaspoon orange extract
¾ cup white sugar
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
½ cup butter, softened
2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons orange extract
2 tablespoons milk, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Sprinkle 1 tablespoon white sugar and the yeast over the warm milk and warm water in a bowl. Let stand until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes. Mix in the egg, 1/2 cup orange juice, melted butter, vanilla pudding mix, and 1 tablespoon orange extract. Stir in 5 cups bread flour and salt. Add more bread flour if the dough is too sticky. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Place the dough in an oiled bowl and cover with a clean cloth. Allow the dough to rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Combine 1/2 cup softened butter with the orange zest and 1 teaspoon orange extract in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside. Grease a baking sheet, or cover with parchment paper.
  • Turn the dough out on a floured surface and roll out into a 24x12-inch rectangle. Spread the butter mixture evenly over the dough, then sprinkle with 3/4 cup white sugar. Roll up the dough, beginning with the long side. Cut the dough into 18 1 1/2-inch rolls. Arrange the rolls cut-side up on prepared baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Remove the plastic wrap from the rolls and allow them to rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Allow rolls to cool slightly before frosting.
  • While the rolls are baking, cream together the cream cheese and 1/2 cup softened butter until smooth. Stir in the confectioners' sugar and 2 teaspoons orange extract. Stir in milk, a little at a time, until frosting is smooth and spreadable. Spread the frosting over the slightly cooled rolls.
