These sourdough strawberry rolls are delightfully gooey, sweet, and tender -- filled with a fresh, strawberry filling and drizzled with a smooth cream cheese icing.

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and grease your baking dish or cast iron skillet.
Add butter and quartered strawberries in a saucepan over medium heat.
Sprinkle with cornstarch and mash. I use a potato masher for this part. Mash the berries to your preference -- a smoother or coarser texture. Stir until thickened. Turn off heat and set aside to cool a bit.
Stir in the brown sugar, then set aside to cool further.
Create The Dough
In large bowl combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Stir in the sourdough starter, honey, melted butter, and water to the flour mixture. Knead for 2-3 minutes until well combined.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface.
Roll out the dough into a rectangle that is 1/4" to 1/2" thick.
Spread the cooled (not hot, warm is fine) strawberry filling over the dough, leaving about 1/4" of space at the edges.
Roll up the dough tightly, starting on a long side. Pinch the ends of the dough to close.
Slice into even rolls using a sharp knife or bench scraper, then place the rolls into the prepared baking dish.
Bake for 25-35 minutes until golden. Let the rolls cool before applying the frosting.
Make The Cream Cheese Frosting
In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, add the cream cheese and butter. Whisk them together until smooth and melted.
Add in the powdered sugar and cream, whisking until smooth.
Drizzle over the strawberry rolls, then enjoy.
Notes
To long ferment this recipe, make the dough and leave out the baking powder and baking soda. Cover with a lid or plastic wrap and leave in a warm place for 8-24 hours.The next day knead in the baking soda and baking powder. And filling the remaining instructions.
