Preparation
Step 1
In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water.
Add the milk, shortening, eggs, sugar, orange juice, orange peel, salt and 3 cups flour; beat until smooth.
Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes.
Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top.
Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
Punch dough down; turn on a lightly floured surface.
Divide into 13 pieces. Shape 12 pieces into 12-in. ropes.
Fold each in half; twist top half of the open end twice to form ears.
Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets.
Shape remaining dough into 12 balls.
Place one on the loop end of each roll to form a tail; press into dough. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
Bake at 375° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
Cool on wire racks.
In a small bowl, combine the glaze ingredients.
Spread over rolls.
