--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1      package       active dry yeast
     1/4  cup           warm water -- 110 to 115 degrees
   1      cup           warm milk -- 110 to 115 degrees
     1/3  cup           sugar
     1/2  cup           butter or margarine -- softened
   1      teaspoon      salt
   2                    eggs
     1/4  cup           orange juice
   2      Tablespoons   orange peel -- grated
   5 1/4  cups          all-purpose flour
                        ORANGE ICING:
   1      cup           confectioner's sugar
   2      Tablespoons   orange juice
   1      teaspoon      orange peel -- grated

In a mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add the next 7   
ingredients and 3 cups flour; beat until smooth. Add enough 
remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured   
board; knead until smooth, about 6-8 min. Place in a greased
bowl, turning once. Cover and let rise in a warm place until
doubled, about 2 hours. Punch dough down, roll into a 16x10"
rectangle, about 1/2" thick. Cut into 10x3/4" strips; roll  
lightly and tie into a knot. Place on greased baking sheets;
tuck the ends under. Cover and let rise until doubled, about
30 min. Bake at 400 degrees for 10-12 minutes until golden  
brown. Cool on wire racks. Combine icing ingredients;       
drizzle over rolls.
