Preparation
Step 1
FOR DOUGH: Combine milk, sugar, oil and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir until dissolved. Add 2 cups of flour and beat well. In a separate bowl whisk the 2 eggs. Add the egg mixture to the large bowl and stir until combined. Dissolve the yeast in warm water and add to the large bowl. Slowly add in 2 1/2 cups of flour and 3 tsp. orange zest. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Slowly add the other cups of flour and beat on medium speed. You want the dough to be smooth, not sticky. Pour 1/2 Tb oil around the sides of the bowl and cover with a towel. Let rise in a warm place until double in size. Once dough has risen divide into 4 parts. Roll each into a circle. FOR FILLING: Mix together butter, sugar and 2 tsp. orange zest and 1TB orange juice. Spread evenly over your circle of dough and cut into 8 wedges. Roll into a crescent roll. Place onto a greased cookie sheet and let rise for at least 1 hour. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. FOR GLAZE: Beat powdered sugar and orange juice for 1 minute. Drizzle glaze on top. Enjoy!
