Ingredients

Units Scale

For the dough:

  • 3/4 cup warm milk (110°F)
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

For the cheesecake filling:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the blueberry filling:

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch

For the glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm milk and yeast. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Stir in the sugar, melted butter, egg, and salt. Gradually add the flour and mix until a soft dough forms.
  3. Knead by hand or with a dough hook for 5–7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Transfer to a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour, or until doubled.
  4. Meanwhile, prepare the cheesecake filling by beating the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
  5. For the blueberry filling, combine blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until thickened, about 5 minutes, then let cool.
  6. Once the dough has risen, roll it out on a floured surface into a 10×15-inch rectangle. Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the dough, then spoon and gently swirl the blueberry mixture on top.
  7. Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into 12 rolls. Place rolls into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, cover, and let rise for 30–45 minutes.
  8. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake rolls for 25–30 minutes or until golden brown.
  9. Mix glaze ingredients and drizzle over warm rolls before serving.

Notes

  • These rolls can be prepped the night before and baked fresh in the morning.
  • Use frozen blueberries without thawing if preferred.
  • Add lemon zest to the glaze for extra brightness.
