Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup strawberry jam
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) instant yeast
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 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. In a large bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt. Mix well. Then gently stir in warm milk and melted butter until combined. Finally, add in the egg. Knead until the dough is soft and elastic.
  2. Cover the bowl with a clean towel and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size—about an hour.
  3. In another bowl, beat together softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Fold in chopped strawberries and strawberry jam gently.
  4. Once your dough has risen, punch it down gently to release air bubbles. Roll it out into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick on a floured surface. Spread your strawberry cheesecake filling evenly over the dough.
  5. In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Spread softened butter over the filling before sprinkling this mixture on top.
  6. Starting from one long edge of the rectangle, carefully roll up the dough tightly into a log shape. Slice into equal pieces (about 12).
  7. Place each roll in a greased baking dish close together but not touching; cover again with a towel and let rise for another 30 minutes until puffy.
  8. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake your rolls for about 25 minutes until golden brown.
  9. While they bake, whip together softened cream cheese, unsalted butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and enough milk until smooth. Drizzle this glaze over the warm rolls.
