Ingredients

Scale

For the Dough:

  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) instant yeast
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg

For the Strawberry Cheesecake Filling:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup strawberry jam

For the Cinnamon Sugar Mixture:

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

For the Cream Cheese Glaze:

  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp milk (as needed for consistency)

Instructions

  1. Make the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together warm milk, melted butter, and egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until the dough begins to come together. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  2. Prepare the Strawberry Cheesecake Filling: Beat softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl until smooth and creamy. Fold in finely chopped strawberries and strawberry jam until well combined.
  3. Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar Mixture: In a small bowl, mix softened butter, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon until smooth and fully combined.
  4. Assemble the Rolls: After dough has risen, punch it down and roll out on a floured surface into a 12×18 inch rectangle. Spread the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the dough, then layer the strawberry cheesecake filling on top. Carefully roll dough into a tight log starting from the long edge. Cut into 12 equal rolls and place in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Cover and allow to rise for 30 minutes.
  5. Bake the Rolls: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake rolls for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Make the Cream Cheese Glaze: While rolls bake, beat softened cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth and creamy. Adjust milk as needed for the right drizzle consistency.
  7. Glaze and Serve: Drizzle cream cheese glaze over warm rolls once slightly cooled. Serve immediately to enjoy the gooey creamy flavor.

Notes

  • The rolls can be prepared the night before and stored in the refrigerator for a quick bake in the morning.
  • You can substitute fresh strawberries with strawberry preserves if fresh berries are unavailable.
  • For an extra indulgent touch, sprinkle additional cinnamon sugar on top before baking.
