Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a baking dish lightly with butter or non-stick spray.
  3. In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Allow to proof for about 5-10 minutes.

Cooking
  1. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth.
  2. Place dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  3. Once risen, roll the dough into a large rectangle on a floured surface.
  4. Spread softened cream cheese and a layer of sliced strawberries over the rolled-out dough.
  5. Sprinkle cinnamon and sugar evenly on top of the fruit layer.
  6. Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into even pieces.
  7. Place the sliced rolls into the greased baking dish and let rise for another 30 minutes.
