You can cover the whole strawberry surface with cool whip or just dollop whipped cream on top like the picture. Refrigerate about 6 hours or overnight before serving.

Strawberry Pretzel Dessert is a yummy dessert! It is so good you will find it is gone before you blink your eyes! 🙂 This is always a crowd pleaser even if it is a little high maintenance for a dessert.

I recently remade Strawberry Pretzel Dessert (October 2016) for a potluck for our Sunday school class. I’ve made those corrections in the notes for the recipe so you can avoid my mistakes. The plastic wrap fell into the dish and pulled off the beautiful sheen from the Jello that it originally had. When I initially posted this recipe right after I started my blog in June 2012, my pictures were blurry and just not very good! I was using an iPhone for a camera back then which wasn’t particularly good to show exciting pictures of food!īesides all that, I made the mistake of using plastic wrap instead of foil to wrap the dish before refrigerating it one last time. It’s wonderful to serve after a large meal because it’s so light and fluffy. This is such a marvelous recipe for holidays or Valentine’s Day with it’s beautiful colors and light creamy taste. Try it at a potluck sometime and see everyone swoon. You will love this fantastic Strawberry Pretzel Dessert. This recipe has been all over the Internet for years and I’m not sure who the originator of this recipe is. I would not be surprised if this recipe originated from the makers of Jello or someone else selling a product. One time I decided to make it with strawberry pie filling instead of all the Jello goop. You can use frozen or fresh strawberries. My dear friend, Mimi Pownall gave me this recipe in the very early 1980s, and I love the recipe for its versatility. Oh, yum! The question about this recipe is whether or not it should even be classified as a salad!! It seems more like a dessert to me! You will love this fabulous dessert–uh, salad! The original recipe actually called this a salad! It has a wonderful pretzel crust, a lusciously smooth cream cheese layer, followed by a delicious strawberry Jello layer and finally topped with whipped cream.
Strawberry Pretzel Dessert is spectacular.
