Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
- 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2–3 tbsp milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Optional: 1/4 cup strawberry jam
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the warm milk and sugar. Sprinkle the yeast on top and let it sit until frothy.
- Add the melted butter, salt, eggs, and half of the flour to the yeast mixture. Gradually mix in the rest of the flour until a dough forms. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise for about 60 minutes until doubled in size.
- In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, sugar, and cinnamon. In another bowl, blend the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
- Roll out the dough into a large rectangle (about 16×12 inches). Spread the cinnamon butter mixture over the dough, followed by the cream cheese mixture, and sprinkle the diced strawberries on top.
- Roll the dough tightly into a log shape, then cut it into 12 slices. Place the rolls in a greased baking dish.
- Cover the rolls and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
- In a bowl, mix together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla. Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls.
