Description

A classic dessert featuring colorful layers of strawberries, pretzels, and cream cheese, perfect for summer gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups crushed pretzels
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup whipped topping
  • 2 cups strawberry slices
  • 1 package (6 oz) strawberry gelatin mix
  • 2 cups boiling water

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

  5. Chill in the fridge for at least 240 minutes or until fully set.
