Overnight Pull-Aparts (Beth)

I made these last Sunday for General Conference and Aaron's family went nuts!!! I'm not a huge fan of orange rolls, but I thoughts these were pretty good. And way easy to make!
This recipe is from ABC4 news viewer Laura Powell.

12-16 frozen white roll dough--STILL FROZEN (Rhodes)
1 (3.4 oz) package vanilla instant pudding
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1 orange rind, grated
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
Frosting (recipe below)

Sprinkle cranberries in bottom of a greased bundt pan. Arrange rolls evenly in pan. Mix sugar and dry pudding together and sprinkle over rolls. Combine orange rind with melted butter/margarine and spoon over rolls. Cover pan with sprayed plastic wrap. Place pan in cold oven overnight (8-10 hours). Remove rolls from oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Remove plastic wrap from pan and bake for 25 minutes. Immediately invert pan onto serving platter. Cool slightly and drizzle with frosting.

Frosting:
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon melted butter
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice (from grated peeled orange!)

FYI: When I make these pull-aparts I have to make sure the sides have not stuck to the pan after I they have cooked. Just run a knife around the edge and inside tube to make sure it will come out all together.

The following recipe is the Caramel Pull-Aparts version:

use 3/4 cups nuts instead of dried cranberries
4 oz. package butterscotch pudding instead of vanilla
1/2 cup packed brown sugar instead of white sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon instead of orange rind

Then you don't even need the frosting, but if you really want it use milk instead of the juice.

(I made this for Christmas morning breakfast and it was fabulous!!!!!!)
