Like cinnamon rolls, only with cream cheese filling! You can also make a lemon filling by using lemon zest and lemon juice instead of orange if you prefer. This is a Finnish recipe and Finns don't usually go for very gooey and sweet things - the rolls are subtly sweet and have a fresh orange taste. You can add more sugar to the filling if you like, or try making more of it!
