Ingredients

For the dough:

  • 1/2 cup warm milk (110°F / 45°C)

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1 large egg

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (plus extra for rolling)

For the cheesecake filling:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened

  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

For the blueberry swirl:

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed)

  • 2 tablespoons sugar

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

For the glaze:

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

  • 1 tablespoon milk

  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Make the Dough:

    • Combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast in a small bowl. Stir and let sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.

    • In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add yeast mixture, softened butter, and egg. Stir to form dough.

    • Knead on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

  • Make the Cheesecake Filling:

    • Beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth. Set aside.

  • Prepare the Blueberry Swirl:

    • In a small saucepan, cook blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until thickened into a syrup. Set aside to cool.

  • Assemble the Rolls:

    • Punch down the dough, then roll it into a 12×18-inch rectangle. Spread cheesecake filling over the dough, leaving a small border.

    • Drizzle the blueberry syrup over the filling and gently swirl it with a spoon.

    • Roll up the dough into a log and slice into 12 pieces. Place the rolls in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.

  • Second Rise:

    • Cover the rolls and let rise for 30-40 minutes until puffed.

  • Bake the Rolls:

    • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake rolls for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

  • Make the Glaze:

    • Whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to make the glaze. Drizzle over the warm rolls.

  • Serve:

    • Serve warm and enjoy these indulgent, gooey rolls!
