Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick baking mat.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crushed pretzels, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Stir until the pretzels are evenly coated.
Spread the pretzel mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 7-10 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely. Break into small chunks once cooled.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Fold in the whipped topping gently until fully combined.
Stir in the drained crushed pineapple, making sure it is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Right before serving, gently fold in the cooled pretzel pieces. This ensures the pretzels stay crunchy.
Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
