Knead the dough ingredients with a food processor. Divide the dough into 6 pieces and shape each into a roll long enough to fit across the baking sheet. Place 3 rolls of dough on each baking sheet (lined with baking paper). Bake for 10-15 minutes at 180°C (fan oven). In the meantime, mix the icing ingredients with a fork. Immediately after baking, spread a thick layer of icing onto the rolls. While still warm, cut diagonally into 2cm-wide strips and allow to cool. Store in a tightly sealed container. The pastries taste even better after a few days.
