Ingredients

  • 2 cups coarsely crushed pretzels
  • 0.75 cup margarine, melted
  • 1 tablespoon 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 sweetened strawberries (do not thaw)

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Combine crushed pretzels, melted margarine, and 1 tablespoon sugar in a bowl. Mix until evenly moistened; press into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking pan. Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool completely.
  3. Beat softened cream cheese and remaining 1 cup sugar until smooth and fluffy. Fold in whipped topping; spread evenly onto cooled crust.
  4. Place gelatin in a medium heat-proof bowl; pour in boiling water. Stir until gelatin completely dissolved; add frozen strawberries and continue stirring until begins to thicken.
  5. Chill until semi-firm but still pourable; pour over cream cheese layer. Chill at least 2 hours before serving.
