Ingredients

  • 2 cups / 240g all-purpose OR cake flour OR plain flour
  • 2 ½ Tablespoons / 25g sugar SEE NOTE 1
  • 1 level Tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 6 Tablespoons / 85g / 3 ounces cold butter (cubed or grated SEE NOTE 2)
  • ¾ cup / 180ml cold milk
  • ¾ cup / 165g brown sugar SEE NOTE 3
  • 3 Tablespoons / 40g melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons ground / powdered cinnamon
  • 1 cup / 160g powdered (icing sugar, sifted)
  • 2 ½ Tablespoons hot water SEE NOTE 4
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 356°F ( 180°C)

  2. 2

    Combine the brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract and cinnamon

  3. 3

    Carefully roll up the dough tightly into a log working from the longer side. Pinch the edge closed to seal and cut into 9 equal pieces. A great tip is to dip the knife into flour, before cutting each slice. This ensures that you get a neat clean cut without the knife sticking to the dough.

    To make the glaze, combine boiling water, vanilla extract and powdered sugar.
