| Comments: This is fairly simple to make, and there isn't much baking involved, which is good in the summertime. |
Ingredients:  Crust: 2 cups crushed pretzels (about 8 ounces) 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks/6 oz./170g) butter or margarine, melted 3 tablespoons granulated sugar Filling: 2 cups frozen non-dairy whipped topping, thawed (such as Cool Whip) 1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese, softened 1 cup granulated sugar Topping: 1 (6 ounce/8 serving size) package strawberry flavored Jell-O 2 cups boiling water 2 packages (16 ounces each) frozen sliced strawberries with syrup, thawed Additional whipped topping (optional) |
| Instructions: In a bowl, combine pretzels, butter and sugar, press into the bottom of a 13 x 9 x 2-inch deep pan. Bake at 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) for 10 minutes and cool. For the filling, beat whipped topping, cream cheese and sugar until smooth; spread over pretzel crust and chill. For topping, dissolve jello in the boiling water, stir in strawberries with syrup, then chill until partially set. Carefully spoon it over filling. Chill for 4-6 hours, then cut into squares and serve with whipped topping and more strawberries, if desired. Enjoy, its a nice cool treat for the summer. Makes 12-16 servings. |

quick and easy! You can tailor the recipe for diabetics by using sugar free jello, light whipped topping and Splenda to sweeten the strawberries & topping!

Excellent dessert, I grew up on this. I was happy to find a recipe, but none of them are telling me what size box of jello, can you please tell me?

I made this for the first time a few days ago and I substituted all the sugar with Splenda and also used sugar free strawberry Jello. It turned out very good and no one knew it was totally sugar free. I definitely will make it again.

Great dessert! But as a type 1 diabetic just use the real stuff. Not sugar free jello or Splenda. You don't want those chemicals in your body.
