2-2/3 cups crushed pretzels (10 ounces) |
1 cup butter, melted |
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1 cup sugar |
1 carton (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed |
1 can (20 ounces) crushed pineapple |
2 packages (3 ounces each) strawberry gelatin |
2 packages (10 ounces each) frozen sliced sweetened strawberries, thawed |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine the pretzels and butter. Press onto the bottom of a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until set. Cool on a wire rack. In a bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Fold in whipped topping. Spread over cooled crust. Refrigerate until chilled.
