A delightful blend of sweet and salty, featuring a crunchy pretzel crust, creamy layer, and fruity pineapple gelatin topping.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups pretzel twists
  • 3/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup whipped topping
  • 1 cup sugar (for filling)
  • 1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple, drained
  • 1 box (3 oz) strawberry gelatin
  • 2 cups boiling water
  • 2 cups cold water

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Crush the pretzel twists into coarse crumbs, combine with melted butter and 1/4 cup sugar, and press into a baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes and let cool.
  2. Beat the softened cream cheese with 1 cup sugar until smooth. Fold in whipped topping and spread over the cooled pretzel crust.
  3. Combine the drained crushed pineapple with strawberry gelatin, add boiling water, and stir until dissolved. After that, incorporate cold water.
  4. Pour the gelatin mixture over the cream cheese layer and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set. Slice into squares and serve chilled.

Notes

Let the pretzel crust cool completely before adding the cream cheese layer to prevent melting. For different flavors, try other fruit gelatins or add fresh fruit.
