STRAWBERRY SWEET ROLLS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Generously grease a 9-inch (23 cm) cast iron or cake pan.
• In a large bowl, whisk together warm milk, melted butter, and granulated sugar. The mixture should be just warm, registering between 100-110˚F (40˚C). If hotter, allow to cool slightly.
• Sprinkle the yeast evenly over the warm mixture and let sit for 1 minute.
• Add 4 cups (500 grams) of all-purpose flour to the milk mixture and mix with a wooden spoon until just combined.
• Cover the bowl with a towel or plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 325˚F (160˚C).
• After 1 hour, the dough should have nearly doubled in size. Remove the towel and add an additional ¾ cup (95 grams) of flour, the baking powder, and salt. Stir well, then turn out onto a well-floured surface.
• Knead the dough lightly, adding additional flour as necessary, about ½ cup (60 grams), until the dough just loses its stickiness and does not stick to the surface.
• Roll the dough out into a large rectangle, about ½-inch (12 mm) thick.
• In a small bowl combine the strawberry preserves and butter, stir to combine.
• Spread the filling mixture evenly over the rolled out dough, leave about 1½ inches (4 cm) from the edge.
• Starting from the bottom roll the dough upward, being careful not to squeeze the filling out.
• With a knife cut the rolled dough into 8 pieces.
• Place strawberry roll in the prepared cast iron or cake pan and cover with plastic wrap. Place in a warm spot and leave to rise for 30 minutes. The strawberry rolls should expand to the edges of the pan during this time.
• Bake for 45 minutes. Cover the rolls with foil to prevent the outside from burning, and bake for an additional 35 minutes.
• While the strawberry rolls are baking, prepare the frosting. In a medium-size mixing bowl, whisk together cream cheese, butter, vanilla, whole milk, and powdered sugar, until smooth.
• Remove the strawberry rolls from the oven and let cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes. Once cool, drizzle frosting over the rolls before serving.
• Enjoy!
