Contest-Winning Strawberry Pretzel Dessert image

I love the sweet-salty flavor of this pretty layered dessert. Sliced strawberries and gelatin top a smooth cream cheese filling and crispy pretzel crust. I think it's best when eaten within a day of being made. -Wendy Weaver Leetonia, Ohio

This was not good. The strawberry layer was too sour and the pretzel layer was too bland.

This was a total flop. The cream cheese layer was too thick and the pretzel layer was too thin. I would not recommend this recipe.

I made this for my family and they loved it! I used a different kind of cream cheese (the kind that comes in a block) and it turned out great.

This was very disappointing. The strawberry layer was too runny and the pretzel layer was too dry. I ended up throwing it away. :/

This was a huge hit!! For the pretzel layer, I melted one stick of butter & used almost a whole bag of pretzels. Turned out great!!
