Directions:
Dissolve yeast in warm water; stir in milk, sugar, shortening, salt, egg and 2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Mix in enough of remaining flour to make dough easy to handle. Knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Place in a greased bowl; turn greased side up. Cover and set aside.

Mix together butter, orange peel, orange juice and confectioners sugar until smooth and creamy.

Punch down dough; divide in half. Roll half of dough into a 12 X 7 inch rectangle; spread with 1/2 cup of orange mixture. Roll up tightly, beginning at the long side. Seal edges; stretch to make a 12-inch long roll. Cut into 1-inch slices. Place slices in one end of a greased 13 X 9 inch pan. Repeat procedure with remaining dough, reserving remaining orange mixture. Let rise until double, about 40 minutes.

Preheat oven to 375º. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Frost with remaining orange mixture. Yield: 24 rolls.
