Ingredients
  

For the Dough:

4 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup granulated sugar

2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast (1 packet)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup warm milk (110°F)

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 large egg

For the Filling:

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup strawberries, mashed (fresh or frozen, thawed)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon cornstarch

For the Topping:

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 tablespoon milk

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fresh strawberries, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and instant yeast. Allow it to sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy. Add melted butter, egg, and salt, mixing until combined.

    Mix and Knead: Gradually add all-purpose flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Place it in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

      Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, mix softened cream cheese, sugar, mashed strawberries, vanilla extract, and cornstarch until smooth. Set aside.

        Roll Out the Dough: Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangle approximately 12x18 inches and 1/4 inch thick.

          Spread the Filling: Evenly spread the cream cheese and strawberry mixture over the rolled-out dough. Starting from one long edge, carefully roll the dough into a log.

            Cut the Rolls: Slice the log into 12 equal pieces using a sharp knife or dental floss for clean cuts. Place the rolls in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan, spacing them slightly apart.

              Second Rise: Cover the pan with a cloth and let the rolls rise for an additional 30-45 minutes until they have puffed up.

                Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the cinnamon rolls for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

                  Make the Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.

                    Glaze the Rolls: Once the rolls are done baking, let them cool for a few minutes before drizzling the glaze over the top. Garnish with fresh strawberries if desired.

                      Serve and Enjoy: Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Strawberry Cheesecake Cinnabon Rolls!
