Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Warm your milk to about 110°F, then combine it with active dry yeast in a small bowl. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- In a large mixing bowl, add flour, sugar, and salt. Create a well in the center to add the yeast mixture, melted butter, and eggs.
- Gently mix dry ingredients with wet ingredients using a wooden spoon or stand mixer until a shaggy dough forms (2-3 minutes).
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place kneaded dough in a greased bowl. Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and roll it out into a rectangle (¼ inch thick). Spread melted butter over it and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar mixture.
- Slice the rolled dough into 12 equal pieces and arrange them in a greased baking dish. Preheat the oven to 350°F and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
- Let the rolls cool for about 10 minutes. Prepare icing by whisking powdered sugar, orange juice, and zest until smooth. Drizzle icing over warm rolls.

Notes
Adjust icing thickness by modifying the ratio of powdered sugar to orange juice. Store leftovers in an airtight container. They can be refrigerated for up to a week or frozen for up to three months.
