1. In large bowl, combine 4 cups flour, yeast, sugar, orange peel and salt. Heat orange juice, milk and butter until hot to touch; stir into dry mixture. Mix in eggs and enough remaining flour to make soft dough.

2. Knead on floured surface until smooth, 4-5 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes. Divide dough in half. Roll each to 6- × 16-inches; cut each into sixteen 1-inch wide strips.

3. Tie each strip into a knot; place on greased baking sheets. Cover; let rise until doubled in size, about 40 to 50 minutes. Brush with Honey Topping.

4. Bake at 350ºF for 15 minutes or until done; cool slightly on wire racks. Brush again with Honey Topping.
