Mrs. D's Strawberry Pretzel Bake

A great dessert for all times of the year! Kind of like a dessert lasagna. Delish!

Backstory: When I was a little girl living in our old house we had great English neighbors named the Drury's. Mrs. D was an amazing cook and whenever she babysat myself there would always be something pretty darn tasty to eat. This one she brought to parties and her annual Christmas bash.

Ingredients
1 Large Package Strawberry Jell-o
2 c crushed pretzels
3/4 tbs Margarine
3 tbs Sugar
1 9 oz. tub of Cool whip
1 pkg frozen strawberries
8 oz Cream cheese

Instructions
Mix crushed pretzels, 1 tsp sugar and margarine. Put in baking dish. Bake at 400 degrees for 8 minutes. Cool.

Beat cream cheese and rest of sugar. Stir in cool whip. Spread over cooled pretzels. Dissolve Jell-o according to package directions (use approx 1.5 cups boiling water). Add strawberries. Stir and cool slightly. Pour over top. Chill.
