Ingredients
•
1/3 cup butter
•
1 cup packed brown sugar
•
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
•
2 cups all-purpose flour
•
2 tablespoons white sugar
•
4 teaspoons baking powder
•
1 teaspoon salt
•
1/4 cup butter, chilled
•
1 cup cold milk
•
1/3 cup currants
•
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
•
3 tablespoons milk
Directions
1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease the bottoms and sides of a 12-cup muffin tin.
2
Cream 1/3 cup butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon together. Drop 1 teaspoon into each muffin cup. Reserve the remaining mixture.
3
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in 1/4 cup cold butter until crumbly. Make a well in center, and pour in the milk. Stir to form a soft dough, adding a bit more milk if needed.
4
Turn the dough out on lightly floured surface. Knead 8 to 10 times. Pat dough into rectangle about 1/3 inch thick and 12 inches long. Spread the remaining cinnamon mixture over dough rectangle. Sprinkle currants over top. Roll up like a jelly roll into a long log. Mark the dough first, to make sure you know where to cut, then cut the log into 12 slices. Place cut-side down in the prepared muffin pan.
5
Bake in in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn rolls out on a serving tray.
6
For the glaze, add milk to the confectioners' sugar and stir well, adding more liquid if necessary to make a thin glaze. Drizzle over cinnamon rolls.
