Strawberry Pretzel Salad Recipe

Strawberry Pretzel Salad Recipe

Pretzel Crust Ingredients:3 Tbsp. Sugar
3/4 C. Melted Butter
2 C. Crushed Pretzels
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a plastic bag, crush your pretzels into pieces. Make sure they aren’t too fine. I have found that my mini girl hammer works best, but you can always use a rolling pin or your hands.
Combine the crushed pretzels, melted butter & sugar together in a mixing bowl until the pretzels are coated.Line the bottom of a 9×13″ pan with the pretzel mixture to form a crust.Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.Let crust cool completely.Cream Cheese Layer Ingredients:1 C. Sugar
8 oz. Pkg. Cream Cheese
8-9 oz. Pkg. Cool Whip
Let cream cheese & cool whip soften at room temperature.
Combine sugar, cream cheese & cool whip.
Spread cream cheese mixture over the cooled pretzel crust.

Strawberry Layer Ingredients:2 oz. Pkg. Strawberry Jello
2 C. Boiling Water
20 oz. Frozen Sliced Strawberries
Add boiling water to the jello powder, and stir until dissolved.
Add the frozen strawberries to jello.This will thicken as the strawberries melt.Pour the jello & strawberries over top of the cream cheese layer.
Chill until the jello has set {usually 4 or more hours}.
The perfect summer dessert…Serve & Enjoy!
