Instructions
Creating these Strawberry Cheesecake Cinnabon Rolls requires simple, straightforward steps to achieve remarkable results. Here’s how to make them:
1. Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine the warmed milk, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until foamy.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining sugar, and salt.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: Add the melted butter and eggs to the dry ingredient mixture, затем incorporating the yeast mixture.
4. Knead the Dough: Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
5. Prepare the Filling: In another bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, lemon juice, cornstarch, and chopped strawberries until smooth. Set aside.
6. Roll Out the Dough: After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a large rectangle (about 1/4 inch thick).
7. Spread the Filling: Evenly spread the cheesecake filling over the dough.
8. Roll It Up: Starting from one long end, tightly roll the dough into a log shape.
9. Slice the Rolls: Cut the rolled dough into 12 equal pieces using a sharp knife or dental floss for clean cuts.
10. Arrange in a Baking Dish: Place the sliced rolls in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, ensuring they are snug but not squished together.
11. Final Rise: Cover with a cloth and let the rolls rise for an additional 30 minutes.
12. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) during the final rise time.
13. Bake the Rolls: Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes until they are golden brown.
14. Make the Glaze: While the rolls are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract for the glaze.
15. Cool and Drizzle: Once baked, let the rolls cool for about 10-15 minutes before drizzling the glaze on top.
By following these simple steps, you will create Strawberry Cheesecake Cinnabon Rolls that are not only flavorful but also visually stunning!
