Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the filling by combining strawberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes until thickened. Puree and cool.
  2. Make the dough by mixing flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Add warm milk, butter, and egg. Knead until smooth and elastic.
  3. Grease a bowl, place the dough inside, cover, and let it rise for about 2 hours until doubled in size.
  4. Roll out the dough into a rectangle and spread the cooled strawberry filling evenly, leaving a border.
  5. Shape the rolls by tightly rolling the dough and slicing it into 12 pieces. Place in a greased baking dish.
  6. Let the rolls rise for 30-60 minutes until puffy.
  7. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Bake rolls for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Prepare the glaze by mixing cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and strawberry puree until smooth. Glaze the warm rolls before serving.
