Kick the tires and light the fires : preheat oven to 400 degrees please!
Take those 2 cups of flour and dump them into a mixing bowl, add in the baking powder and sugar.
Mix the dry ingredients together with a whisk.
Use a pastry blender ( or two knifes criss-crossing each other) and cut the butter in, until its in tiny little pieces throughout the mixture.
Make a well, and pour the milk into it.
Mix it until it forms a soft ball, then take the dough out and put it onto a floured surface.
Take your rolling pin, and roll it until it's about 12 inches long, 5-6 inches wide and 1/3 inch thick.
Now it's time to start the filling. Take the brown sugar,1/3 cup butter and cinnamon and combine.
Take a measured teaspoon and drop it into each muffin tin.
Take the remaining filling and spread it out over the dough.
Take your raisins and sprinkle them over the top.
Roll the dough up jelly roll style.
Mark off 12 rolls. Don't ignore me and start sawing away wildly, take a knife and mark them off.
Take a serrated knife and cut those marks that you listened to me and made.
Place them in the muffin tins, or enlist your help while you supervise.
Bake for 12-17 minutes.

These can be made with currants, or no fruit at all.
