Instructions:
- Start by making the dough first.
- Heat the milk in a small saucepan and then pour into a mixing bowl, add in the sugar and the yeast, gently stir and cover with a towel for 5 to 10 minutes, until the yeast is frothy
- With the mixer on low, beat in the softened butter, add the eggs one at a time and then add the salt. The butter may remain in pieces, this is normal. Do not soften too much or melt it.
- Continue on slow speed, gradually add the flour. Once the flour has all been added, continue mixing until the dough forms.
- Increase the speed until the dough is soft and supple. If you do not have the stand mixer, use your hands to knead the dough.
- Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead for another minute. Form the dough into a ball, place it into a lightly oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let sit in a warm place for two hours, or until doubled in size.
- As the dough is rising, make the filling.
- Warm the strawberries in a saucepan, stir constantly until the berries start to release juices. Add the sugar and the cornstarch.
- The mixture will continue to thicken. Remove from the heat and continue to stir for a few more minutes. Place into a heatproof bowl, set into the refrigerator and let it cool.
- Grease a 9×13 baking pan. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface, and roll out into a 12×18 inch rectangle.
- Spread the strawberry filling evenly over the dough
- Roll the dough up tightly into an 18 inch strip, cut into 12 equal pieces and place them into the pan.
- Cover the pan and allow the dough to rise for 1 to 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 375* and bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown
- Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes while you make the glaze
- Whisk the lemon juice and the confectioner’s sugar. Stir until smooth
- Drizzle over the warm rolls and serve.
Enjoy!
