Hi! These look so yummy! I have a question though. Do you think this would work with lemon zest and lemon juice instead of orange juice and zest? Maybe just add a bit more sugar?

Made these this morning, totally doable as a weekday treat for sleepy teenagers. Came together super easily and tasted great.
I used a ripe orange for the juice and it could have been a bit more tart, I'll add a little lemon juice next time. I might also bump up the butter in the dough a bit and try half cake flour. The texture following the recipe is a little closer to a scone than a cinnamon roll.

I made these for mother's Day and were a big hit! I did have a problem printing the recipe....all of the 'underlining' confused my printer and turned all entries (including ingredients) into HTML lines of text. So I wrote ot out long hand. =)

Hi Posie, I made this this morning for Mother's Day. Delicious and I'll be making this a lot. Question: if the dough is really sticky, does it need more flour, or is it b/c the butter and milk were not cold enough?

Likely you just need to add a bit more flour -- but it could also be the temperature. It shouldn't matter too much but the colder the butter, the less likely it is to start melting into the dough. Try keeping your butter very cold and handling the dough lightly, and if it still feels too sticky, just flour your work surface more. I find it very helpful to think of shaping the dough as folding rather than kneading -- if you just keep folding it onto itself, it'll help to incorporate the extra flour more evenly.

This sounds like such a great recipe! I'm going to make it today with my daughters!
