  • 540 g (4 ¼ cups) all-purpose flour
  • 65 g (⅓ cup) granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 80 g (⅓ cup) unsalted butter, very soft
  • 250 g (1 ¾ cups) fresh or frozen strawberries
  • 50 g (¼ cup) granulated sugar (for filling)

Instructions

  1. Place the strawberries in a saucepan with lemon juice and granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes until thick.

  5. Cover the dough and let it rise for about 2 hours until doubled in size.
  6. Roll out the dough to form a rectangle and spread the cooled filling evenly on top.
  7. Roll the dough tightly into a log and cut into 12 pieces.
  8. Arrange the rolls in a greased baking dish and let them rise for another 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  9. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
  10. While the rolls cool, prepare the glaze by beating cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and strawberry puree.
  11. Spread the glaze over the warm rolls and serve immediately.

Notes
