Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your delicious Irresistible Strawberry Cheesecake Cinnabon Rolls:
1. Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
3. Mix Together: Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms.
4. Knead the Dough: On a floured surface, knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
5. First Rise: Place the dough into a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
6. Prepare the Filling: In a separate bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Fold in the diced strawberries.
7. Roll Out the Dough: After the first rise, punch down the dough. Roll it out into a rectangle, about ½ inch thick on a floured surface.
8. Spread the Filling: Evenly spread the cheesecake filling over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
9. Roll It Up: Starting from one edge, tightly roll the dough into a log and pinch the seam to seal.
10. Slice the Rolls: Cut the log into 12 equal sections and place them in a greased baking dish.
11. Second Rise: Cover the rolls and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
12. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) during the second rise.
13. Bake: Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
14. Make the Glaze: While the rolls bake, whisk together the powdered sugar, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
15. Cool: Once baked, let the rolls cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes.
16. Drizzle the Glaze: Drizzle the prepared glaze over the warm rolls.
17. Serve: Top with additional fresh strawberries, if desired.
