Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt and yeast.
Add the milk, melted butter, water and egg to the dry ingredients. Mix until combined.
Gradually add the remaining flour (about 2 1/4 cups) and knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes,using a stand mixer.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours or until doubled in size.
Meanwhile prepare the filling, in a small saucepan, combine cranberries and sugar over medium heat. Cook until the cranberries break down and the mixture thickens, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the orange zest.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle (about 12x18 inches).
Spread the cranberry filling evenly over the dough.
Roll the dough tightly into a log, starting from one of the long edges.
Cut the roll into 12 equal pieces and place them in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
Cover the rolls and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
While the rolls are baking, whisk together powdered sugar and milk to make a smooth glaze.
Once the rolls are done, let them cool slightly before drizzling the glaze over the top and enjoy.
