A sweet and creamy dessert with a crunchy pretzel crust, creamy filling, and fruity strawberry topping.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups crushed pretzels
- 3/4 cup melted butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 (12 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
- 1 (6 ounce) package strawberry flavored gelatin
- 2 cups boiling water
- 2 (10 ounce) packages frozen sweetened strawberries, thawed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- In a medium bowl, combine crushed pretzels, melted butter, and 1/4 cup sugar. Press mixture into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Gradually beat in sweetened condensed milk until smooth. Fold in thawed whipped topping. Spread mixture evenly over the cooled pretzel crust.
- In a separate bowl, dissolve strawberry gelatin in boiling water. Stir in thawed strawberries. Let cool slightly, but do not let it set.
- Pour strawberry mixture gently over the cream cheese layer.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
Notes
- Ensure the pretzel crust is completely cool before adding the cream cheese layer.
- Allow the strawberry mixture to cool slightly before pouring to prevent melting the cream cheese layer.
- Refrigerate for sufficient time for the salad to set properly.
