It's been awhile since my last post/recipe. For that, I apologize. I have some pictures of tasty goodies on my husbands laptop. As soon as I can access said laptop I will post more pictures and more recipes. What am I saying??? I don't need no stinking pictures! The following recipe will be passed down in my family for generations to come...I'm sure of it! You've probably seen this recipe before. If you haven't and you haven't tried it...you've been missing out. I think the first time I ever saw this was in an old church recipe book...I'm not sure who to give credit to.
What you'll need:
2 C. crushed pretzels
3/4 C. butter
1 1/2 C. sugar
1 (8 oz.) cream cheese, room temp.
1 (8 oz.) Cool Whip
2 (3 oz.) boxes strawberry JELLO (or you can use 1-6 oz. box)
2 C. boiling water
1 pt. frozen, sweetened strawberries
Here's what you do:
*Mix crushed pretzels, butter, and 1/2 C. sugar.
*Pat into 9x13 baking dish.
*Bake at 350* F for 8 minutes.
*Beat cream cheese, 1 C. sugar, and Cool Whip together and spread on pretzel crust.
*Dissolve JELLO in boiling water. Add strawberries; chill until slightly set.
*Pour the JELLO mixture over the cream cheese mixture. Chill until hard.
*May be made a day ahead...but I don't like to do that because you run the risk of the pretzels getting soggy.
