Ingredients
Dough:
- 1/3 cup water warm
- 2 1/4 teaspoon instant yeast 1 package
- 1 tablespoon white granulated sugar
- 2 eggs room temperature
- 1 cup milk lukewarm
- 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter melted
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
Strawberry Filling:
- 1 cup seedless strawberry jam
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 1/2 cups diced strawberries
Cream Cheese Icing:
- 8 oz cream cheese room temperature
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Make the dough:
- Set aside 4 cups of flour and salt in a large bowl.
- Add instant yeast, one tablespoon of sugar, and lukewarm water to a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Let it rest for 5 minutes.
- Add the eggs, milk, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, and melted butter to the yeast mixture and whisk until well combined.
- Add the yeast mixture to the flour mix, and using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir until well combined.
- The dough will be sticky. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for 10 minutes, preferably in a warm place.
Make the Filling:
- Warm the strawberries in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly for 4 minutes until the strawberries begin to release juices.
- Add the granulated sugar, lemon, lemon zest, and cornstarch, and stir for another 2 minutes. At this point, the mixture will thicken.
- Remove from the heat and add the strawberry jam to the mixture. Chill until ready to use; the filling needs to be chilled before being added to the rolls.
Prepare the Rolls:
- Preheat oven to 350 F degrees. Place an oven rack in the middle of the oven.
- Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper and spray it with baking spray.
- Flour a flat surface and roll the dough. You will need a good amount of flour. Use it liberally on your hands and rolling pin and sprinkle the dough with some.
- Roll the dough until it's about 16 inches long by 13 inches wide and about 1/4 inch thick. The dough should not be very thin, as it won't hold the filling well.
- When rolling, make sure the dough doesn't stick to the surface.
- Spread the filling over the surface of the dough.
- Starting at the long edge, roll the dough down to the bottom edge away from you.
- Cut the dough into 12 two-inch slices and place the rolls into the prepared baking pan.
- Let the rolls rest for 10 minutes, and let rise a bit.
- Place the baking pan in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
Make the Cream Cheese Icing:
- Add the cream cheese and butter to a mixing bowl and beat until smooth.
- Add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and pinch of salt and mix until smooth. Stop to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl with a spatula.
- If the icing is too stiff, add one tablespoon of milk.
Icing the Rolls:
- Once the rolls are done baking, remove them from the oven and immediately ice the rolls.
- Preferably serve warm with strawberries on the side, but they are also great at room temperature.
Notes
- For foolproof icing, soften your butter and cream cheese. This way, they incorporate easily and don’t leave lumps in the icing.
- Feel free to adjust the sweetness of the icing by reducing or adding sugar.
- Chill the filling BEFORE spreading it onto the dough, or you’ll have a sticky mess on your hands.
- We love fruit chunks in our filling, but for a shortcut, you can also use lemon-infused jam alone.
