Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 package refrigerated cinnamon rolls (with icing)

Cheesecake Filling

  • 4 ounces cream cheese (softened)
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Strawberry Topping

  • 1/2 cup strawberry jam or preserves
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries (chopped)

Optional

  • Extra strawberries for garnish
  • Cream cheese glaze


Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking dish to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Make the Filling: In a small bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy, free of lumps.
  3. Unroll Cinnamon Rolls: Separate the cinnamon rolls from the package and unroll each one into a flat strip, creating a canvas for the filling and jam.
  4. Fill the Rolls: Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly over each unrolled cinnamon roll strip. Then, add a spoonful of strawberry jam on top of the cream cheese layer.
  5. Roll and Arrange: Carefully roll the strips back up into their spiral form and place them into the prepared baking dish, spacing them evenly.
  6. Bake: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and are thoroughly cooked through.
  7. Add Icing and Strawberries: Remove the rolls from the oven and quickly spread the included icing from the cinnamon roll package on top. Sprinkle with freshly chopped strawberries for added color and flavor.
  8. Serve: Serve the rolls warm for the best taste and enjoy your homemade strawberry cheesecake cinnabon rolls.

Notes

  • For an indulgent variation, drizzle melted white chocolate over the rolls.
  • These rolls are best enjoyed fresh from the oven but can be reheated briefly in the microwave for a quick treat.
