Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Combine the boiling water with the strawberry gelatin. Stir to dissolve completely, then set aside to cool.
- Combine crushed pretzels, ¼ cup of the granulated sugar, and melted butter in a large bowl. Stir well, then press into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
- Beat cream cheese and remaining ¾ cup sugar in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Beat heavy cream in another bowl until thickened and medium peaks begin to form.
- Stir ½ of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Fold in remaining whipped cream.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture onto the cooled pretzel crust, smoothing it all the way to the edges of the pan to create a seal so the liquid gelatin doesn't leak when added to the other ingredients. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to set before adding jello layer.
- Add the sliced strawberries to the cooled jello, then carefully spoon over the cream cheese layer, spreading the sliced strawberries out to evenly cover everything. Refrigerate for 2-4 hours until completely set before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Store: Keep the dessert in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Make Ahead: Prepare the dessert a day in advance, cover tightly, and keep refrigerated until serving.
