Orange Rolls

I got this recipe from Margaret. These rolls are delicious. You have to plan ahead if you want to make them, because you have to refrigerate the dough before you roll it out (otherwise it will be to sticky to work with). And it takes several hours for it to rise. Don't add extra flour! The dough is supposed to be very soft and sticky. 
Orange Rolls 
 Grease Muffin Tins.......Don’t add flour to recipe. This is a very gooey dough. 

 In a pan heat and melt one cube of margarine, 1 cup water, ½ cup sugar and 2 tsp. salt. Cool ... And add 3 beaten eggs. 
In a large bowl put ¼ cup warm water. Sprinkle with 2 pkg (2 Tbsp) yeast. And 2 tsp. sugar. Combine yeast mixture and margarine mixture.Add 4½ cups flour. 
Let rise 1 hour. Punch down. Cover and chill overnight. 
3-3½ hours before baking divide into 3 parts. Roll each part into a rectangle (about 12”x9”. Pour orange mix over. Roll like jelly roll. Cut into 12. Place cut side up on muffin tin. Let rise 3 hours. Bake at 400ยบ for 8-10 minutes.
