Directions
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, active dry yeast, and one tablespoon of sugar. This mixture forms the base of your rolls and is essential for the perfect rise. Gradually add the milk, mixing until a soft dough begins to form. Knead the dough on a floured surface until it becomes smooth and elastic, about 5 to 8 minutes. Once well-kneaded, place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and allow it to rise in a warm area for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). While the oven heats, roll out the risen dough on a floured surface into a large rectangle. Spread the filling mixture over the dough to create a tremendous layer of creaminess. In a separate bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, diced strawberries, and vanilla extract until creamy and well combined. Make sure the strawberries are evenly distributed for the best flavor.
-
Carefully roll the dough tightly from one end to the other, forming a log. Slice the rolled dough into equal-sized pieces, about 1 to 2 inches thick. Place the slices in a greased baking dish, leaving a little space between each roll for rising. The rolls will expand as they bake, creating a tremendous fluffiness.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes until the rolls are golden brown and fragrant. Allow them to cool slightly before serving. The kitchen should be filled with an inviting aroma that beckons everyone to enjoy a taste of this delightful dessert.
