How to Make Strawberry Pretzel Jell O
- Crush 1 ½ cups pretzels into coarse crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
- In a medium bowl, combine the crushed pretzels with 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter. Mix until evenly moistened.
- Press the pretzel mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Refrigerate while you prepare the next layer.
- In a large bowl, beat 1 (10 ounce) container of frozen whipped topping (thawed) with 1 (8 ounce) package of cream cheese (softened) until smooth and creamy.
- Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 2 tablespoons powdered sugar. Beat until light and fluffy.
- Spread the marshmallow cream mixture evenly over the chilled pretzel crust.
- In a separate bowl, prepare 3 cups strawberry gelatin according to package directions. Let it slightly cool but ensure it's still liquid, then gently pour it over the marshmallow layer.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the Jell-O to set completely.
- Before serving, garnish with fresh strawberries (optional).
