Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups crushed pretzels
- 0.75 cup butter, melted
- 3 tablespoons white sugar
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 (8-ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
- 2 (3-ounce) packages strawberry-flavored Jell-O®
- 2 cups boiling water
- 2 (10-ounce) packages frozen strawberries
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients and preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Stir together the crushed pretzels, melted butter, and 3 tablespoons of sugar until well combined. Press this mixture into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 8 to 10 minutes or until set. Set the crust aside to cool.
- Combine the softened cream cheese and 1 cup of sugar in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth, then fold in the thawed whipped topping. Spread this mixture over the cooled pretzel crust.
- Dissolve the gelatin in the boiling water. Stir in the still-frozen strawberries and let it set briefly. Then pour and spread the gelatin mixture over the cream cheese layer.
- Refrigerate the dish until it is set, which takes at least 2 hours.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Ensure cream cheese is softened for easy blending. Let the gelatin cool slightly before pouring over the cream cheese layer.
