Hello Friends! Welcome back to

TASTY TUESDAY!

Today I’m sharing with you my version of the Strawberry Pretzel Jello! I made it for our family dinner a couple sundays ago and it was a hit!!

For the fruit in my Jello layer, I used these sliced strawberries with sugar you can get in the frozen food section of the grocery store. I thawed them out first which created a lot of juice. I spooned all the strawberry slices out of the juice and left about 1/3 of the container full of excess juice. There were plenty of berries and it tasted yummy because of all the added sugar!!

Here is what each layer looked like during the process.

Strawberry Pretzel Jello

This strawberry pretzel jello can be served as a side dish or a dessert. It's the perfect addition to your family potlucks.

Prep Time 30 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Total Time 45 minutes

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups crushed pretzel sticks
3/4 cup melted butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 (8 oz) package cream cheese- softened
1 cup white sugar
1 (8 oz) container cool whip - thawed
2 (3 oz) packages strawberry jello
1 1/2 cups boiling water
1 (24 oz) package frozen sliced strawberries in sugar (thawed)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine the melted butter, brown sugar and crushed pretzels.
Press into a 9 x 13 baking dish.
Bake 10 minutes and let cool.
Cream together white sugar and cream cheese.
Gently fold in thawed cool whip.
Spread evenly on top of cooled pretzel layer.
Go all the way to the edges of pan and cover all the pretzels.
Dissolve the strawberry jello in the boiling water.
Once dissolved, scoop out the strawberry slices from the package and add to the jello.
Let jello chill in fridge until it just starts to gel, then pour/spoon onto the cream cheese layer.
Chill until ready to serve.

I can never get the perfectly sliced pieces. They always look kind of messy. Any you know what? That’s ok. It still tastes just as good! 🙂

The brown sugar and butter on the pretzels make them taste like pecans!! Delicious!!

I hope you all give it a try! It’s super simple and your family will thank you! The first time she had it, my niece asked what the candy on the bottom was!!

ENJOY!
