ORANGE ICING
In a mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add the next seven 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 and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turing once to grease top.
Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 2 hours. Punch dough down; roll into a 16-in x 10-in rectangle, about ½ in thick. Cut into 10-in x ¾-in 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 minutes. Bake at 400 for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire racks. Combine icing ingredients; drizzle over rolls.
