Instructions

Creating these Strawberry Cinnamon Rolls is an exciting process. Follow these simple steps to ensure your rolls come out perfectly:

1. Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, granulated sugar, and salt. Mix well.
2. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the warmed milk, melted butter, and eggs. Stir until a dough begins to form.
3. Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
5. Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, mix together the sliced strawberries, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
6. Roll Out the Dough: After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle, about ¼ inch thick.
7. Spread the Filling: Spread the softened butter over the rolled-out dough. Evenly distribute the strawberry mixture across the surface.
8. Roll It Up: Starting from one long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Pinch the seams to seal.
9. Slice the Rolls: Using a sharp knife or dental floss, slice the log into 12 equal pieces.
10. Second Rise: Place the slices in a greased baking dish, cover, and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
11. Preheat the Oven: While the rolls are rising, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
12. Bake the Rolls: Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
13. Prepare the Icing: While the rolls are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
14. Cool and Drizzle: Allow the rolls to cool slightly before drizzling the icing over the top.
