  2. Add melted butter and beaten egg, stirring to combine. Gradually add flour and salt until a soft dough forms.
  3. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for about 40 minutes.
  5. In a mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  6. Once the dough has risen, roll it into a rectangle. Spread the cheesecake filling, sprinkle strawberries, and roll tightly.
