Orange Rolls

(if TRIPLE, then just double yeast)

1/4 c water
1 pkg or 1 T yeast
jiggle together, sprinkle sugar on top, set aside.

Scald milk- 1 c (no boil on top- sides and bottom)

1/2 c shortening
1/3 c sugar
1 t salt
Mix together
Add milk and let sit- 5 minutes

4 3/4 c flour (won't use all- dough needs to be sticky)
2 beaten eggs
1/4 c mixed orange juice
Add 2 cups of flour, some of the eggs and some of the yeast to the mix.  Stir.  Add the rest of the flour little by little with more eggs and more yeast- just makes sure it's still sticky.  When you're out of eggs and yeast add in orange juice and more flour.  Just make sure the dough remains sticky.

Let sit and cover (1 hour to 1 1/2 hours depending on temperature- until doubled).  Then punch and let sit for 10 more minutes.

Grease counter
Roll out dough in rectangle.  Use a pizza cutter to cut in 3/4 inch strips.
Butter pan.  Loosely tie strips in knots and set in pan.  Let them rise some more for 30-40 minutes.
Cook at 375 for 9 minutes.

Glaze: Orange juice and powdered sugar.  Spoon over baked rolls
