My first mother-in-law gave me this recipe many years ago
2 cups Self Raising Flour 2 tablesp Icing Sugar
2 tablesp Margarine pinch Salt 1 1/2 - 2 cups Milk
I always sift the flour,salt & icing sugar about 5-6 times
Rub through the Margarine until biscuit crumb consistency
Add milk & mix well through ( I use a knife)
The mixture should be a bit sticky
Place on a floured board & knead until the outside are no longer sticky & inside it is not too dry
Cut into squares or use a flour dipped cutter
Cook in a moderate oven for about 15 minutes or until brown on top
Allow to cool while being wrapped in a teatowel
Great with jam & cream
You can also add chopped dates or sultanas to change the taste
Fail safe recipe

Sorry guys
I thought there might be something that wouldn't be the same as it is here
Do you make icing or frosting for your cakes from the start?
Icing sugar is the same as whatever you use to do that. Here I use Margarine milk & icing sugar
I think you are right "greaterexp" as I seem to remember someone once saying that icing sugar is a powdered sugar
