Preparation Steps
- In a small bowl, combine lukewarm whole milk with active dry yeast and a pinch of sugar. Stir and let stand for about 10 minutes until frothy.
- In a stand mixer, combine eggs, melted butter, and proofed yeast mixture. Gradually add flour, sugar, and salt, mixing until a dough forms. Knead for 5 minutes.
- Transfer dough to a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise in a warm area until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- In a saucepan, combine fresh strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice over medium heat. Simmer, mash berries, then stir in cornstarch slurry. Cook until thickened and cool completely.
- Punch down the dough and roll it out into a rectangle. Spread cooled strawberry jam, cut into strips, roll each strip into spirals, and place in a greased baking dish. Cover and let rise again for 30-45 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake rolls for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
- Prepare icing by beating cream cheese, powdered sugar, and lemon zest together until smooth. Stir in milk for consistency.
