Ingredients
  

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

3/4 cup milk

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup fresh strawberries, diced

1/4 teaspoon lemon zest

1 tablespoon milk (for brushing)

1/2 cup additional powdered sugar (for glaze)

1 tablespoon milk (for glaze)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Make the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the softened butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

      Add Milk: Pour in the milk and stir until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.

        Roll Out the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.

          Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and diced strawberries until well combined.

            Spread the Filling: Evenly spread the cheesecake filling over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

              Roll It Up: Starting from one long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Pinch the seams to seal.

                Cut the Rolls: Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 12 equal pieces. Place the rolls in a greased baking dish.

                  Brush with Milk: Lightly brush the tops of the rolls with milk to help them brown while baking.

                    Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden and cooked through.

                      Prepare the Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth and drizzleable.

                        Glaze the Rolls: Once the rolls are out of the oven, allow them to cool slightly. Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls before serving.

                          Prep Time: 20 min | Total Time: 50 min | Servings: 12 rolls

                            - Presentation Tips: Serve warm on a large platter, garnish with additional fresh strawberries and a dusting of powdered sugar for an eye-catching finish!
