Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups crushed pretzels
  • 6 tbsp butter, melted
  • 0.5 cups sugar
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cups whipped topping
  • 1.5 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 2 cups strawberry gelatin mix
  • 2 cups boiling water
  • 1 cup cold water

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a mixing bowl, combine crushed pretzels, melted butter, and sugar. Press firmly into a greased baking dish.
  • Bake the pretzel crust for 10 minutes, then let it cool completely.
  • In another bowl, blend softened cream cheese and half of the whipped topping until smooth. Spread over the cooled pretzel crust.
  • In a separate bowl, dissolve strawberry gelatin in boiling water. Stir in cold water and let cool for 10 minutes.
  • Add sliced strawberries to the gelatin mixture, then carefully pour over cream cheese layer.
  • Refrigerate the salad for at least 4 hours, or until the gelatin is set.
  • Before serving, top with remaining whipped topping and garnish with additional strawberries if desired.

Notes

This salad is best served chilled and can be made a day ahead. For added flavor, try using fresh mint leaves as a garnish.
