Instructions

Follow these steps to create delicious Strawberry Cinnamon Rolls:

1. Prepare the Dough:
– In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk and sugar. Sprinkle yeast on top and let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.

2. Mix Ingredients:
– Add melted butter, eggs, and salt to the yeast mixture. Stir until well combined.

3. Add Flour:
– Gradually add the flour to the mixture, one cup at a time. Mix until a soft dough forms.

4. Knead the Dough:
– Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

5. First Rise:
– Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

6. Prepare the Filling:
– In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.

7. Roll Out the Dough:
– After the dough has risen, punch it down and turn it out onto a floured surface. Roll it into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.

8. Spread the Filling:
– Spread softened butter evenly on the dough. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over it, followed by an even layer of sliced strawberries.

9. Roll and Cut:
– Starting from one long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut the log into 12 equal pieces.

10. Second Rise:
– Place the rolls in a greased baking dish, cover, and let rise for an additional 30 minutes.

11. Preheat Oven:

12. Bake the Rolls:
– Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

13. Prepare Icing:
