Also, if you like them just like me, you know you start buying them when they are available in marked down prices….somewhere in July/August #budgetgirls #mymealplan 😉

Now, the other thing that’s always stocked at home is these Ocean Spray® Craisins® Dried Cranberries as we love them as an anytime hearty snack.

You get the picture by now, that I’m always ready to make these delicious rolls 🙂

Glazing the Rolls:

This step is sooooo important as why not go all the way for the rolls.

I love adding that Festive touch to all Holiday recipes and what better than an all-white glaze and dried cranberries on top.

The glaze requires just 2 Ingredients: Powdered Sugar & Milk

But I do like to add a few drops of orange extract to enhance the flavor a tad bit more….this makes them just like the gourmet kinds.

Also, I recommend glazing when they are still a little warm to touch. That way the heat in them absorbs teh sugary glaze quickly.

Also, whenever I make these Orange Cranberry Rolls, I always keep some extra for me as I know once they are served, they are gone in minutes.

So many times I had to skip eating them as they were already gone before I ate.
