  • ½ tsp salt
  • For the Cheesecake Filling:
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened

  • For the Glaze:

  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Make the Dough: In a large bowl, mix warm milk, sugar, and instant yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes. Add melted butter, egg, and salt. Gradually mix in flour until a soft dough forms. Knead for 6–8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  2. First Rise: Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  3. Cheesecake Filling: Beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Set aside.
  4. Peach Filling: In a bowl, combine diced peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch (if using).
  5. Roll Dough: Punch down dough and roll into a 10×15-inch rectangle.
  6. Add Fillings: Spread softened butter over the dough. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar evenly. Spread cheesecake mixture, then scatter peach filling on top.
  7. Shape Rolls: Roll tightly from the long side. Cut into 12 equal slices.
  8. Second Rise: Place rolls in a greased baking dish. Cover and let rise for 30–40 minutes until puffy.
  9. Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 22–26 minutes until golden brown.
  10. Glaze: Whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. Drizzle over warm rolls and serve.

Notes

  • Use cornstarch in peach filling to prevent sogginess.
  • Chill assembled rolls overnight to bake fresh in the morning.
  • Add chopped nuts for crunch or raspberries for extra fruitiness.
  • Swap cream cheese for mascarpone for a milder flavor.
  • For vegan version, use plant-based milk, butter, and cream cheese.
