Hot Cross Buns ~Perfect For Easter~

• 2 pkgs. active dry yeast (1/4 oz. each)
• 1/4 cup warm water (110-degrees approx.)
• 1 cup warm milk (110-degrees approx.)
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup shortening
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
• 4-1/2 to 5 cups flour
• 1 cup dried currants
• 1 egg white, lightly beaten

ICING:

• 1-3/4 cups confectioners sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 to 6 teaspoons milk

Dissolve yeast in warm water. Add milk, sugar, shortening, eggs, salt, cinnamon, allspice and 3-cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in currants and enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic (appox. 6 minutes). Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place about 1 hour.

Punch dough down. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Roll out on floured surface to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut with a floured 2-1/2 inch biscuit cutter (or use a glass). Place 2-inches apart on lightly greased baking sheets. Cover, let rise until double in size (about 30 minutes).

Brush with egg white. Bake at 350-degrees for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire rack. For icing; mix sugar, vanilla and enough milk to achieve piping consistency. Pipe a cross on top of each bun. Makes 2 dozen.
