2. Using a spoon, stir in raisins and as much of the remaining flour as you can mix in with a wooden spoon. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough flour to make a soft dough (3 to 5 minutes total). Shape into a ball. Place dough in a greased bowl; turn once to greased surface. Cover and let rise for about 1 1/2 hours.
   
   
3. Punch dough down. Turn out onto floured surface. Cover and let rest 10 minutes. Divide dough into 20 portions; shape each into a ball. Place balls 1 1/2 inch apart on greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise 30 to 45 minutes. With a sharp knife, make shallow crisscross slash across each bun. Brush with egg white. Bake at 375 degrees F. for 12 to 15 minutes. Cool slightly.
   
4. In a small bowl combine 1 cup powdered sugar, milk and 1/4 tsp.vanilla. Stir in Milk, 1 tsp. at a time, until it reaches a thick drizzling consistency. Drizzle buns with icing in the shape of a triple moon. Serve warm.
