This is almost identical the the recipe my grandmother gave me. I've been making these for 40 years and they are always a big hit for breakfast. The only difference is the icing. Here's my recipe and it's amazing...<br/>1 Tablespoon Butter (Room Temperature)<br/>1 Tablespoon Cream Cheese (Room Temperature)<br/>1-2 Tablespoons Orange Juice<br/>1/4 Teaspoon Vanilla<br/>Orange Zest (optional)<br/>1 Cup Powdered Sugar
