Ingredients
 

For the Dough:

  • 1 cup warm milk about 110°F or 45°C
  • 2 and 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast 1 packet
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour plus more for dusting

For the Strawberry Filling:

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

For the Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Prepare the Dough:

  • In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast and 1 tablespoon of the sugar in warm milk. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, until frothy.
  • Add the remaining sugar, melted butter, salt, eggs, and gradually mix in the flour until a dough forms. Knead on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  • Place the dough in a greased bowl, covering it with a clean cloth. Let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Make the Strawberry Filling:

  • While the dough is rising, combine the chopped strawberries, sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens. Allow it to cool.

Assemble the Rolls:

  • Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Spread the cooled strawberry mixture evenly over the dough.
  • Starting with the long side, roll the dough tightly. Cut the log into 12-14 equal pieces.
  • Place the rolls in a greased baking dish, leaving some space between each for them to expand. Cover and let them rise again for about 30 minutes.

Bake:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.

Prepare the Glaze:

  • While the rolls are baking, whisk together powdered sugar, milk (or cream), and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth.

Finish and Serve:

  • Once the rolls are done, let them cool for a few minutes before drizzling with the glaze.
  • Serve warm and enjoy!
