Ingredients
  

DOUGH:

  • 1 1/2 cup milk
  • 2/3 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 6 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 packet instant yeast
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 egg
  • 1/2 cup water

FILLING:

  • 1 18 ounce jar strawberry jam
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 cups strawberries coarsely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons flour

ICING:

  • 1 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  •  

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, combine 3 cups flour and yeast. Set aside.
  • In a saucepan, heat the milk, 2/3 cup butter, sugar, and salt until 120 degrees F. Remove from heat and stir until the butter is melted. Add to the flour and yeast.
  • Mix on low, using a regular paddle, adding the egg.
  • Change the mixer attachment to the dough hook. Beat the dough at low, adding the remaining flour a little at a time. Increase speed to medium until a soft dough forms, approximately 3 minutes.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl, turning once to coat both sides. Cover with a clean dishtowel.
  • Allow the dough to rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 ½ hour.
  • Punch the dough down and turn out onto a floured surface. Cover and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Combine the filling ingredients.
  • Roll the dough into a rectangle, approximately 20 inches by 10 inches. Gently spread with HALF of the filling mixture, leaving a 1-inch space on one long edge without filling.
  • Starting on the long side, roll the dough up, working it tightly but without pulling the dough too much. Seal the long edge by pinching it shut.
  • Cut the dough into 12 even slices by cutting the dough in half, cutting those halves in half, and then the quarters into three slices each.
  • Prepare two 9x13 casserole dishes with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Place remaining filling in the bottom of each casserole dish. Then, put each roll in the dish allowing about one inch between them. Cover and allow to rise in a warm place about 40 minutes or until doubled.
  • TIP: Before allowing the final rise, rolls may be tightly covered and placed in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Remove from the refrigerator and allow to rise before baking.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
  • While the rolls bake, combine the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla, stirring until well blended. Then, add the milk a little at a time until reaching the desired consistency.
  • Remove rolls from the oven and spread with icing.
