Ingredients

  • 3 cups pretzels we need to end up with 2 cups crushed
  • 1 stick of butter.
  • ¼ cup sugar.

For the cream layer

  • 8 oz package cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 8 oz tub of cool whip thawed in the fridge
  • ½ cup vanilla greek yogurt.

For the jello

  • 6 oz package of strawberry jello.
  • 1 ½ cup boiling water.
  • 1 lb frozen or fresh strawberries.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • In a zip lock, add your pretzels and crush, you should end up with two cups crushed pretzels.
  • In a sauce pan over medium heat, melt butter, add sugar and stir well, turn off the heat and add the pretzels.
  • In a 13X9 pyrex pan spread the pretzels mixture and press down lightly to distribute evenly.
  • Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes.Take it out and cool completely.
  • While the pretzel mixture is cooling, prepare second layer.
  • First cream sugar and cream cheese then add the yogurt and beat until everything is very well combined.
  • Then fold in the cool whip with a spatula.
  • *Spread the cream mixture on top of the pretzel covering sealing the pretzel layer very well.
  • Refrigerate for 30-45 minutes.
  • **Mix the jello very well with 1 ½ cups of boining water. Add the frozen strawberries and mix well let it set in room temperature for 5 minutes stirring every now and then.
  • Spread the jello evenly on the cream layer and refrigerate for another 2 hours or over night.

Notes

* I found it easier to distribute the mixture on the edges then carefully with the back of the spatula spreading the mixture from the edges working your way to the middle.
** if you used fresh strawberries then dissolve the jello in 2 cups of boiling water.
