INGREDIENTS

1 pack puff pastry ; (from a shop)
75 grams unsalted butter
75 grams golden caster sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon ; (adjust to your taste)
60 grams sultanas
300 grams icing sugar
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
3-4 tablespoons water

Swirls

INSTRUCTIONS

1. On a floured surface, roll out the puff pastry into a rectangle - approx 30x40 cm; If using a ready-rolled pastry, unroll leaving the greaseproof paper underneath the pastry.

2. Beat together the butter, caster sugar and cinnamon (adding a little water if the mix is too stuff), then spread over the pastry leaving approx 1-2 cm gap along one short side

3. Scatter sultanas over the filling, then roll from the short edge with no gap to make a sausage; if using ready-rolled, use the greaseproof to roll up the pastry.

4. Chill for 10-15 minutes with the visible edge facing down until firm, greasing a baking sheet or tin while chilling.

5. With a serrated knife, cut into slices 1-2 cm thick - you should be able to get 16 or 20 slices; if you prefer taller finished pastries, cut into into slices 2-3 cm thick - you should be able to get 9 or 12 slices.

6. Lay flat side down in the greased baking tray/tin, pressing slightly if the pastries aren't touching.

7. Chill for 20 minutes, preheating the oven to 200 C/fan 180 C/gas 6 while they're chilling

8. Bake for 18-20 minutes until lightly golden, then leave to cool on the tray/in the tin

9. Make the icing by whisking together the icing sugar, vanilla extract and water until a thick icing paste is formed, then tip/spread over the swirls

10. Break apart or separate to serve
