3. Prepare the Blueberry Filling
Cook Blueberries: In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and the blueberries release their juices, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
4. Assemble the Rolls
Roll Out Dough: Punch down the risen dough and turn it onto a floured surface. Roll it out into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
Spread Cheesecake Filling: Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the dough.
Add Blueberry Filling: Spoon the blueberry filling over the cheesecake layer, spreading it out evenly.
Roll Up Dough: Starting from the long side, tightly roll up the dough into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.
Cut Rolls: Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 12 equal pieces.
Arrange Rolls: Place the rolls cut-side up in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Cover with a towel and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until puffy.
5. Bake the Rolls
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake: Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
6. Prepare the Glaze
Mix Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk or powdered sugar as needed.
7. Glaze and Serve
Drizzle Glaze: Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls.
Serve: Serve the blueberry cheesecake rolls warm and enjoy!
