Golden Milky Strawberry Rolls

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dough:
   • In a small bowl, combine the warm milk and sugar. Sprinkle the yeast over the top and stir gently. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes foamy.
   • In a separate large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Add the melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract to the yeast mixture, then pour it into the flour mixture. Stir until combined and knead the dough until it becomes soft and smooth (about 8-10 minutes).
   • Cover the dough with a clean towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
2. Prepare the Strawberry Filling:
   • In a small saucepan, combine the chopped strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries release their juices (about 5 minutes).
   • In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a tablespoon of water to create a slurry. Add the slurry to the strawberry mixture and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, until it thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool.
3. Assemble the Rolls:
   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
   • Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
   • Spread the cooled strawberry filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Carefully roll the dough into a log, sealing the edges to prevent the filling from leaking out.
   • Slice the rolled dough into 12 even pieces and place them in the prepared baking dish, cut side up. Leave a little space between each roll for expansion.
4. Bake the Rolls:
   • Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown on top. The rolls should be soft and puffed up, with a light golden hue.
5. Make the Glaze:
   • While the rolls are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk if needed to reach a drizzle-able texture.
6. Glaze and Serve:
   • Once the rolls have baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls and serve!
