Instructions

Follow these easy steps to create your Strawberry Cheesecake Cinnabon Rolls:

1. Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine warm milk and sugar. Sprinkle yeast on top and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.

2. Mix the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center, add the yeast mixture, softened butter, and eggs. Mix until a dough forms.

3. Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough to a floured surface. Knead for about 5-6 minutes until smooth and elastic.

4. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

5. Prepare the Filling: In a separate bowl, mix together softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and cornstarch until smooth.

6. Roll Out the Dough: Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangle on a floured surface.

7. Spread the Filling: Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture over the rolled dough and sprinkle diced strawberries on top.

8. Add Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, mix melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Drizzle it over the strawberry cream cheese layer.

9. Roll and Cut: Starting from the long side, roll the dough tightly into a log. Cut into 12 equal rolls.

10. Second Rise: Place the rolls in a greased baking dish. Cover with a cloth and let them rise for 30 minutes.

11. Preheat Your Oven: While the rolls are rising, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

12. Bake the Rolls: Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.

13. Make the Frosting: While rolls are baking, beat together softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.

14. Cool and Frost: Once out of the oven, let the rolls cool for about 10 minutes before drizzling with cream cheese frosting.

15. Serve Warm: Enjoy them warm for the best flavor experience!
