Description

Strawberry Cheesecake Cinnamon Rolls are a decadent fusion of soft cinnamon rolls, creamy cheesecake filling, and sweet strawberry preserves. Quick, beginner-friendly, and perfect for brunch or dessert, this baked strawberry treat is warm, fruity, and irresistible.


Ingredients

Scale
    • For the filling:
    • 4 oz (113g) cream cheese, softened
    • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
    • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1/4 cup (60g) strawberry preserves or jam

 

    • For the dough:
    • 1 can (8-count) refrigerated cinnamon roll dough (e.g., Pillsbury)

 

  • For topping:
  • Additional strawberry preserves
  • Cream cheese glaze from the cinnamon roll package (or homemade)
  • Fresh chopped strawberries (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Unroll each cinnamon roll and spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture over the surface.
  4. Add a spoonful of strawberry preserves and gently swirl it in.
  5. Carefully roll each cinnamon roll back up and place into the prepared dish.
  6. Bake for 18–22 minutes, until golden and cooked through.
  7. Cool slightly, then drizzle with icing and top with more strawberry preserves and chopped strawberries if desired.
  8. Serve warm and enjoy.

Notes

  • Let cream cheese fully soften for a smooth filling.
  • Don’t overfill or the rolls may not bake evenly.
  • Use room-temperature dough for easier unrolling.
  • Line the pan with parchment for easy cleanup.
  • Add fresh strawberries on top for flavor and presentation.
