Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Strawberry Cheesecake Sweet Rolls
  1. In a large bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Stir gently and let sit for 5–7 minutes until frothy.

  3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for approximately 40 minutes until doubled in size.
  5. Prepare the filling by beating cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth.
  6. Roll out the dough into a 12x16 inch rectangle, spread the cream cheese filling, and sprinkle diced strawberries.
  7. Roll the dough tightly and cut into 12 equal pieces. Arrange in a greased baking dish.
