Hubby did a rare thing yesterday. When I asked him what he'd like for dessert on Father's Day HE ACTUALLY TOLD ME. So! We had Strawberry Pretzel Cake today - which I'm not sure I've ever really had before (I tend to opt for the chocolate dessert) - and it was delicious. (Can you say it's delicious if you made it?) Anyway, apparently it's one of Hubby's favorite summertime dishes and I've never made it in the 10 years that I've known him!
Good stuff.
And I actually have a picture to share with you this time! But, next time I'll put cool whip on top to make it prettier - just so you know.
Also, I got this from allrecipes.com. I'm sensing a theme here.
Judy's Strawberry Pretzel Salad
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups crushed pretzels
4 1/2 tablespoons white sugar
3/4 cup butter, melted
1 cup white sugar
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 (6 ounce) package strawberry flavored gelatin
2 cups boiling water
1 (16 ounce) package frozen strawberries
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Mix together the pretzels, 4 1/2 tablespoons sugar and melted butter. Press into the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan. Bake for 10 minutes, or lightly toasted. Set aside to cool completely.
2. In a medium bowl, beat the sugar and cream cheese until smooth. Fold in whipped topping. Spread evenly over the cooled crust. Refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes.
3. In a medium bowl, stir together the gelatin mix and boiling water. Mix in frozen strawberries, and stir until thawed. Pour over cream cheese mixture in pan. Refrigerate until completely chilled, at least 1 hour.
