I found this one in Farm Journal's Complete Home Baking Book.
Although I haven't made these, I can say that every recipe I've ever prepared from this book has turned out beautifully. HOT CROSS BUNS 6 to 6 1/2 cups sifted flour 1/2 cup sugar 3/4 tsp. salt 2 tsp. ground cinnamon 2 pkgs. active dry yeast 1 1/2 cups milk 6 tbs. butter or regular margarine 3 eggs 1 1/4 cups currants 1 egg yolk 2 tbs. water Icing (recipe follows) Combine 2 cups of the flour, sugar, salt, cinnamon and undissolved yeast in mixing bowl, mix thoroughly. Combine milk and butter in saucepan. Heat until very warm (120-130 F). Add to flour-yeast mixture, beating with electric mixer at medium speed 2 minutes. Add 3 eggs and 1 cup of the flour, beat 2 minutes. Stir in currants and enough flour to make a soft dough. Turn dough out on lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic, about ten minutes. Place in greased bowl, turning over once to grease top. Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled, about an hour. Punch down dough. Let rest ten minutes. Divide in 18 pieces, shape each piece into a ball. Place equally spaced in geased 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan. Combine egg yolk and water; mix well. Brush with egg yolk mixture. Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes. Bake in 375 F oven 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from pan; cool on rack. Frost with icing before serving. Best served warm. Makes 18 Icing: Combine 1 cup sifted confectioner's sugar, 1 tbs. milk and 1/2 tsp. vanilla in bowl; beat until smooth. Drip icing from spoon over center of each bun both lengthwise and crosswise to form crosses. ------- I do hope you enjoy these! Let me know how then turn out.
