Follow these steps carefully to create your amazing Irresistible Strawberry Cheesecake Cinnabon Rolls:
1. Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, mix warm milk, melted butter, and sugar. Add yeast and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the yeast mixture along with the eggs.
3. Knead the Dough: Mix until a rough dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. Let the Dough Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
5. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, sour cream, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
6. Prepare the Strawberry Filling: In a separate bowl, combine chopped strawberries, granulated sugar, and cornstarch. Stir to mix thoroughly.
7. Roll Out the Dough: Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangular shape, about 1/4 inch thick.
8. Spread the Fillings: Spread the cheesecake filling over the rolled-out dough, then top with the strawberry filling, ensuring an even distribution.
9. Roll and Cut: Starting from one edge, tightly roll the dough into a log shape. Cut the roll into equal pieces about 1-2 inches thick.
10. Bake the Rolls: Place the rolls into a greased baking dish, cover, and let rise for another 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
