Servings - 10 servings

Ingredients 

  • 1 package strawberry Jello
  • 1 package raspberry Jello
  • 2 - 10 oz. bags frozen strawberries
  • 2 cups crushed pretzels
  • 3/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 8 oz. Cool Whip topping, thawed
  • 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sugar

Instructions

  • Boil 2 cups of water and dissolve the 2 packages of jello gelatin. Pour into a mixing bowl, add in the frozen strawberries and put in the fridge to set for about an hour or hour and a half. (Set a timer, you don't want this to set completely.)
  • Preheat oven to 400 F.
  • Combine the crushed pretzels, melted butter and sugar and press into the bottom of a 9x13-inch glass baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes, remove and let cool.
  • In a stand mixer or mixing bowl, combine the Cool whip and cream cheese with the sugar until smooth. Once the crust is cooled, carefully spread the creamy layer onto the pretzel layer.
  • Once the jello is partially set, spread over the cream cheese layer. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate and let set for at least 4 hours.
  • Serve Strawberry Pretzel "Salad" for dessert, or with your holiday feast meal ;)
