Flour a rolling pin and roll dough into large thin rectangle
In small bowl , combine brown sugar, raisins and 1 tsp cinnamon. Spoon and spread this around center of dough , leaving a 1 inch edge clear
Gently but tightly roll dough up. Using string or pizza cutter , cut roll into 8 equal pieces.

While baking prepare icing . Drizzle icing over buns while they are warm
