Instructions

Making Irresistible Strawberry Cheesecake Cinnabon Rolls involves several straightforward steps. Follow this list to bring your delightful rolls to life:

1. Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let this mixture sit for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes frothy.
2. Mix Ingredients: Add melted butter, egg, and salt to the yeast mixture. Gradually mix in the flour until a soft dough forms.
3. Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough to a floured surface. Knead for about 5-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. Let It Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
5. Prepare the Fillings: As the dough rises, mix together the ingredients for the cheesecake filling in a bowl until smooth. Set aside. Mix the brown sugar and cinnamon for the filling in a separate bowl.
6. Roll Out the Dough: After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangle on a floured surface, about 16×12 inches.
7. Assemble the Rolls: Spread softened butter over the dough, sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture, and then spread the cheesecake filling, followed by strawberries. Roll the dough tightly and cut it into 12 equal pieces.
8. Bake: Place the rolls in a greased baking pan, cover, and let them rise again for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Once the rolls have risen, bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
9. Prepare the Cream Cheese Glaze: While the rolls cool, mix the glaze ingredients until smooth and creamy.
10. Glaze and Serve: Drizzle the cream cheese glaze over the warm rolls and serve immediately.
