1. 1. Prepare the Dough Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sourdough discard, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined and smooth. The mixture should be a pale yellow and slightly thick.

2. 2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Ensure there are no lumps and the leavening agents are evenly distributed.

3. 3. Form the Dough: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing with a wooden spoon or spatula until a shaggy dough forms. Be careful not to overmix. Once most of the flour is incorporated, gently fold in the finely diced fresh strawberries. The dough will be soft and slightly sticky.

4. 4. Shape the Rolls: Lightly flour a clean work surface. Turn the dough out onto the floured surface and gently knead it a few times, just enough to bring it together into a cohesive ball. Roll the dough into a rectangle, about 1/2 inch thick. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar evenly over the surface of the dough.

5. 5. Cut and Arrange: Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, cut the dough into 12 equal strips. Roll each strip into a spiral to form a sweet roll shape. Arrange the rolls in a lightly greased 9×13 inch baking dish, leaving a little space between each roll as they will expand slightly.

6. 6. Bake to Golden Perfection: Preheat your oven to 375 F (190 C). Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown on top and cooked through. A toothpick inserted into the center of a roll should come out clean.

7. 7. Prepare the Cream Cheese Glaze: While the rolls are baking or cooling slightly, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and milk or cream until smooth and creamy. If the glaze is too thick, add a tiny bit more milk; if too thin, add a little more powdered sugar.

8. 8. Glaze and Serve: Once the rolls are out of the oven and have cooled for about 5-10 minutes, drizzle generously with the cream cheese glaze. Serve warm and enjoy!
