Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add 1/4 cup sugar, salt, eggs, sour cream, 6 tablespoons butter and 2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
  2. 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 1-1/2 hours.
  3. Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide in half. Roll each portion into a 12-in. circle. Brush with remaining butter. Combine orange peel and remaining sugar; sprinkle over butter.
  4. Cut each circle into 12 wedges. Roll up wedges from the wide end. Place pointed side down 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Curve ends down to form a crescent shape. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 45 minutes or until doubled.
  5. Bake at 350° for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks. Combine glaze ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 3 minutes. Pour over warm rolls. Cool. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 2 dozen.
