Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups crushed pretzels
- 0.333 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 0.5 cup powdered sugar
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 3 ounces strawberry gelatin mix
- 0.5 cup boiling water
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 0.5 cup cold water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crushed pretzels, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the pretzel mixture firmly and evenly onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove and set aside to cool completely.
In a small bowl, whisk together the strawberry gelatin mix and boiling water until the gelatin is fully dissolved. Add the cold water and mix well. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Set whipped cream aside.
In another mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Gradually fold the cooled strawberry gelatin mixture into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
Gently fold in the whipped cream until no streaks remain, creating a fluffy strawberry filling.
Fold the sliced fresh strawberries into the filling, distributing them evenly.
Pour the strawberry filling into the cooled pretzel crust, spreading it evenly across the surface.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until set.
Slice, serve, and enjoy your Fluffy Strawberry Pie with Pretzel Crust!
