How to Make Pretzel Fooler
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Crush 1 ½ cups pretzels into coarse crumbs. Melt 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) of butter and combine with the pretzel crumbs and ½ cup granulated sugar. Mix well.
- Press the pretzel mixture firmly into a greased 13x9 inch baking pan.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Let cool completely.
- In a separate bowl, beat together 8 ounces of softened cream cheese and ½ cup powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold in 8 ounces of thawed Cool Whip.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled pretzel crust.
- In a small bowl, dissolve 1 packet (1 tablespoon) of unflavored gelatin in ¼ cup hot water. Stir until completely dissolved.
- Add 2 cups of frozen strawberries to the gelatin mixture and stir until the strawberries thaw and the gelatin begins to thicken.
- Pour the strawberry gelatin mixture over the cream cheese layer.
- Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, until completely firm.
- Cut into squares and serve. Enjoy!
