- 2 cups crushed pretzels
- 3/4 cup melted butter
- 3 tablespoons sugar, plus 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese
- 1 (8-ounce) container whipped topping
- 2 (3-ounce) packages strawberry gelatin dessert mix
- 2 cups boiling water
- 2 (10-ounce) packages frozen strawberries
- 1 (8-ounce) can crushed pineapple

This is becoming a holiday tradition in our family! I'd set it with the salads and then allow people to choose to come back wanting it for a light dessert!

This strawberry pretzel salad was a hit at our holiday staff party. You know you have a winner when teachers go back for seconds and thirds. Not only is this a great salad, but it makes for an absolutely delicious dessert.
