Bring on all the strawberry things. That includes at every potluck, get together, party, etc.
One thing you’re guaranteed to see at just about every gathering? Some version of a strawberry pretzel ‘salad’. Not sure who first called it a salad, it’s not in any shape or form, but it definitely is pretty darn good.
It’s a simple dessert that doesn’t have a long ingredient list. What it lacks in ingredients though, it more than makes up for in a beautifully designed marriage of flavors.
Sweet, a little salty, and with a teensy bit of tart- it’s a dessert guaranteed to be a hit. A salty, buttery pretzel crust is topped with a layer of creamy cool whip, finished off with a sweet layer of sliced strawberries in a jello mixture.

A stunning dessert, these parfaits put a creamy new spin on the classic strawberry pretzel salad.
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Servings: 2
Ingredients
12-14 fresh strawberries, washed with tops cut off, and diced
2 tsp Dixie Crystal's granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups mini pretzels
2 tbsp butter, melted
scant 1/8 tsp cinnamon
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tbsp Dixie Crystal's light brown sugar
1/8 tsp Adam's Extract vanilla extract
1/8 tsp Adam's Extract imitation strawberry extract
Instructions
- Add the strawberries to a bowl. Sprinkle the sugar over top, stirring to coat. Refrigerate the strawberries for 30 minutes. Don't skip this step, the sugar helps them release their natural sugar and juices.
- Pulse the pretzels in a food processor, just until broken into small pieces- but NOT pulverized. We want some crunch and that means some chunks. Add the melted butter and cinnamon, pulsing another time or two- just until evenly combined.
