Hot Cross Buns
From Bridgford Frozen Bread Dough website
1 loaf Bridgford (or Rich’s) Frozen Bread Dough, thawed
¾ cup raisins or currants
1/4 cup sugar
¾ teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons melted butter
2 cups powdered sugar
Soak raisins in warm water for 5 minutes; drain thoroughly. Sprinkle raisins with ¼ cup sugar mixed with ¼ teaspoon cinnamon. On a lightly floured board roll dough out slightly to an 8 x 10 inch rectangle. Spread raisins on dough and knead in thoroughly. Cut and shape dough into 12 to 20 rolls. Place half of rolls into each of two lightly greased 9-inch cake pans or one 9 x 13 inch pan. Brush with melted butter. Let rise until doubled in size. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Glaze with mixture of 1 cup powdered sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and 4 teaspoons milk, while still hot. Let rolls cool 10 minutes. Mix together remaining powdered sugar and enough milk to make a very stiff mixture. Using a pastry tube or spoon, make a cross on each roll.
