Servings: 1
Ingredients:
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter or margarine
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons grated orange rind
1/3 cup orange juice
1/2 cup sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons shortening
1 cup milk
Directions:
1. Melt butter in a heavy saucepan over low heat; add 3 tablespoons flour, stirring until smooth. Stir in orange rind and juice; cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened and bubbly. Remove from heat; add sugar, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Set mixture aside to cool.
2. Sift together 2 cups flour, baking powder, and salt; cut in shortening with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add milk, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
3. Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface, kneading lightly until dough is smooth. Roll dough to a 1/4-inch thick 15- x 10-inch rectangle. Spread 3/4 cup of orange-sugar mixture evenly over dough, reserving 1/2 cup; leave a narrow margin on all sides. Roll up jellyroll fashion, beginning at long side. Cut roll into eighteen 3/4-inch slices; gently place slices, cut side down, in well-greased muffin pans. Bake at 400° for 18 minutes or until rolls are lightly browned. Remove from pan and drizzle warm rolls with reserved orange-sugar mixture.
