Ingredients

2 1/2 cups pretzels crushed
3 Tablespoons brown sugar
3/4 cup butter melted
1 (6 ounce) box instant strawberry jello
1 (16 ounce) container of fresh strawberries sliced (or 1 (10 ounce) package frozen strawberries)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1 (8 ounce) container of cool whip, thawed

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a mixing bowl, combine crushed pretzels, brown sugar, and melted butter. Press into a lightly greased 9x13 pan. Bake for 8 minutes and remove from oven. Let cool completely.
While the crust is baking, make the jello according to the package directions. Let the jello sit at room temperature for an hour or until it cools.
Beat the cream cheese and sugar together with a hand mixer until creamy. Fold in the cool whip with a spatula. Spread the mixture over the top of the pretzel crust completely to the edges so the jello won't leak through. Chill in the fridge.
Once the jello has cooled, layer the sliced strawberries over the chilled cream layer and top with the room-temperature jello. Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight before serving.
