1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup orange juice

Instructions

Combine water and yeast in large mixer bowl; let rest 5 minutes.
Add 3 cups flour, sugar and salt.
Warm orange juice and butter in microwave until warm (100° to 110°F). Pour into flour mixture; add eggs.
Beat for 30 seconds with electric mixer to combine. Increase speed to medium-high and beat for 2 minutes.

Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 35 to 45 minutes or until done. Remove from pan and cool on wire rack.
Let cool then whisk powdered sugar and heavy cream until thick and smooth. Drizzle over top of loaves. Slice and serve.
