How to Make Freds Pretzel Salad
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Crush pretzels into fine crumbs. Combine crushed pretzels, melted butter, and ½ cup sugar in a bowl. Mix well.
- Press pretzel mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool completely.
- While the crust cools, beat together softened cream cheese and 1 cup of sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold in the thawed Cool Whip until combined.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled pretzel crust.
- In a separate bowl, dissolve the Jell-O in boiling water until completely dissolved.
- Stir in the sliced strawberries. Let stand for about 10 minutes to slightly thicken.
- Carefully pour the Jell-O mixture over the cream cheese layer.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the Jell-O is fully set.
