Pretzel Dessert



This is a nice side dish or dessert for a potluck or picnic. I love the sweet creamy flavor mixed with the savory and salty pretzels!

 Pretzel Dessert

 Crust:
2 cups crushed pretzels
3/4 cups butter, melted
2 T. sugar

 Filling:
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
1 cup sugar
1 (8 oz.) container whipped topping

 Topping:
1 (6 oz.) pkg. strawberry gelatin
2 cups boiling water
1/2 cup cold water

 Directions:

 1. In a large bowl combine pretzels, butter, and sugar. Press into the bottom of an ungreased 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Cool completely.
2. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Stir in whipped topping. Spread over pretzel crust. Cover and refrigerate until chilled.
3. For topping, in a small bowl, dissolve gelatin in boiling water. Add cold water; chill until partially set. Carefully pour over filling. Cover and refrigerate for 4-6 hours or until firm. Cut into squares.

 **May try using raspberry jello and add frozen mixed berries!
bon appétit
