1/4 cup: Confectioners sugar,
1/4 tsp: Vanilla extract,
3/4 tsp: Skim milk,
Directions:
1. In large bowl, mix sugar, SweetN Low, salt, cinnamon, yeast and 1
cup flour.
2. In small saucepan over low heat, heat margarine and 1 cup skim milk
until warm (120

3. With mixer at low speed, gradually beat milk mixture into yeast
mixture. Increase speed to medium; beat 2 minutes. Beat in egg and 1
cup flour; continue beating 2 minutes. With wooden spoon, stir in
enough additional flour to make soft dough (about 2 cups). Add
currants and orange peel. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface.

additional flour if necessary. Shape into ball.
5. Spray large bowl with non-stick cooking spray. Place dough in bowl,
turning to coat top. Cover and let rise in warm place until dough is
doubled, about 1-1/2 hours.
5. Spray two 8- or 9-inch square baking pans with non-stick cooking
spray. Punch down dough. Divide dough into 18 pieces. Shape each
piece into a ball. Arrange balls in pans. Cover and let rise in warm
place until doubled, about 1 hour.
6. Preheat oven to 375
F.
7. Lightly beat egg white; use to brush buns. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or
until golden. Remove buns from pan; cool on wire racks 15 minutes.
8. Meanwhile, prepare icing: In small bowl, stir confectioners
sugar,
vanilla and 3/4 teaspoon skim milk until smooth. Drizzle icing over
buns, forming a cross.
