Ingredients
  

For the Dough:

4 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup warm milk (about 110°F)

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

2 large eggs

For the Cheesecake Filling:

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped

For the Topping:

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1-2 tablespoons milk or cream

Instructions
 

Prepare the Dough:

    - In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it's frothy.

      - Add melted butter, eggs, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix well.

        - Gradually add the flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a soft dough forms.

          - Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

            - Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

              Make the Cheesecake Filling:

                - In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.

                  - Mix in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until well combined.

                    - Gently fold in the chopped strawberries. Set aside.

                      Assemble the Sweet Rolls:

                        - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

                          - Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle (about 15x10 inches).

                            - Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

                              - Starting from one edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Pinch the seams to seal.

                                - Cut the log into 12 equal slices and place them in the greased baking dish.

                                  Second Rise:

                                    - Cover the rolls with a cloth and allow them to rise for another 30 minutes.

                                      Bake:

                                        - Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

                                          Make the Topping:

                                            - While the rolls are baking, whisk together powdered sugar and milk until smooth to create a glaze.

                                              Serve:

                                                - Once baked, let the rolls cool for a few minutes before drizzling the glaze over them.

                                                  - Garnish with additional strawberries if desired and serve warm.
