The yummiest quickest cinnamon scrolls that will make people think your a pastry chef

I tried this a few nights ago and wow have I been addicted! I've altered it a bit but I found it on allrecipes.com

Ingredients:
The dough
-2 cups Self-raising flour
-90grams of butter chopped and softened
-2/3 cup full cream milk
-pinch of salt

The filling
-130grams of butter softened
-4 tablespoons of soft brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon of dutch cinnamon

The icing
-1 cup icing sugar
-1 tablespoon of boiling water

Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 210 degrees Celsius.
  2. Dough: Sift flour and salt in a bowl, rub in butter with fingers till it's like bread crumbs.
  3. Add milk and mix lightly with a flat butter knife. They key is to only lightly handle the dough.
  4. Knead till it just comes together on a floured surface until smooth.
  5. Roll out dough to approximately 25 x 40cm rectangle and 5mm thick.
  6. Filling: beat butter, brown sugar and cinnamon with electric beaters until creamy.
  7. Spread over dough and fold up from the long side and cut into 3 cm pieces.
  8. Place cut-side up on a tray with baking paper and put in for about 12 min or until golden brown
  9. Icing: mix icing sugar and hot water till smooth.
  10. Drizzle icing over cinnamon scrolls . I iced when they were hot because I couldn't wait so it was all melted and yummy, but to help the icing set, do it on cool scrolls.
