"This is my version of Orange Danish. These are as easy to make as Cinnamon Rolls. They may sound more difficult, but really are not. I always use store bought vanilla frosting mixed WITH HOMEMADE for these because it makes the texture better (creamier) IMHO. The yield is approximate and depends on how thin you roll and how thick you cut. Sorry I don't have a more accurate yield...."
