Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Rubber spatula
  • 9x13 Baking tray
  • Blender
  • Brush
  • Pizza cutter/sharp knife

Ingredients
  

Dough -

  • 1 and 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tbsp instant yeast
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 cup yogurt
  • 5 cups all purpose flour + 1/2 cup more for rolling
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup melted butter

Filling -

  • 1/2 cup butter soft, room temperature
  • 1 cup cream cheese
  • 1 and 1/2 cup strawberry jam
  • 1 cup strawberries fresh or frozen

Glaze -

  • 1/4 cup cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup whipping cream
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup strawberries fresh or frozen

Instructions
 

  • Pour the warm milk into a mixing bowl, add the yeast and brown sugar. Stir to combine and allow it to foam up, around 5-10 mins. Set aside.
  • Once frothy add the yogurt and stir well. Add the flour, baking powder, salt and melted butter. Stir until you have a sticky dough.
  • Cover and let it rise for 60 minutes or until doubled in volume.
  • Once the dough has doubled in size, liberally flour your clean kitchen counter and roll out the dough with a rolling pin to 9x13inch in height and width approximately.
  • Spread out the butter, then cream cheese and strawberry jam evenly all over the dough. Sprinkle over the chopped strawberries and cut the dough into 12 slices using a pizza cutter.
  • Roll each slice onto itself and using a brush dust off any excess flour the dough has picked up while rolling.
  • Transfer to a baking tray. Cover and let the dough rest for 15 minutes, in the mean time preheat the oven to 180 deg C.
  • Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and risen.
  • To make the glaze, blend all the ingredients together until smooth and creamy, pour over the hot strawberries and cream rolls and let it soak in the glaze for 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

Do not over bake these rolls as they will become dense, the residual heat from the baking tray will continue to cook them.
Drench the rolls in the glaze while still warm so they soak up all the flavor.
