Combine first 5 ingredients in large bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in centre.

Add sour cream to well. Stir until soft dough forms. Turn out onto lightly floured surface. Gently knead 4 or 5 times until dough just comes together. Gently roll out on waxed paper on dampened work surface to 8 x 12 inch (20 x 30 cm) rectangle. Brush dough with melted butter, leaving 1 inch (2.5 cm) edge on 1 long side.

Combine second amount of granulated sugar and cinnamon in small cup. Sprinkle on top of butter. Roll up from covered long side, jelly-roll style, using waxed paper as guide. Pinch seam against roll to seal. Cut into 1 inch (2.5 cm) slices, using floured knife. Lay slices flat, about 1 1/2 inches (3.8 cm) apart, on greased baking sheet. Bake in 400°F (205°C) oven for about 15 minutes until golden. Let stand on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to wire rack.

Icing: Combine all 3 ingredients in small bowl until smooth. Drizzle over swirls. Makes 12 swirls.
