Orange Rolls

We were at the store the other day and Leyna saw a package of cinnamon rolls in the bakery section. "Can we get these???" she begged. "How about if I make you some for breakfast tomorrow?" I asked her. Who knows what was in those packaged ones. I'd rather make them myself!
Luckily I found this recipe for orange rolls that looked delicious AND I already had all of the ingredients on hand. So I set to work that afternoon making the dough and getting the rolls ready so I could throw them in the oven the next morning.
I've never, ever attempted any kind of cinnamon or other yeast rolls before because they always seemed so difficult. Now that I've done it I realize it's not too bad and I'll definitely be trying them again! I liked this recipe but wanted it to be a little more orangey and the rolls to be a little more puffy. So, I'm just going to link to the recipe and will post the full details next time after I tweak things a bit.
The girls however were VERY happy with their breakfast and I was told I was the "best Mommy in the whole world." Now that's worth any amount of work it takes to make something :)

My dough was really sticky. Next time I think I'll refrigerate the logs before I slice them so they come out a little more even. This made two entire pans so we sent one over to our neighbors with baking instructions and glaze on the side. They were happy for the "room service." ;)
