Perfect! Thanks for sharing! This recipe uses the Jell-o to "hold it together"... instead of the dry pretzels... this was wonderful! I have already made it 4 times!!!

This has got to be one of my very favorite desserts!!! I haven't tried it yet, but I'm pretty sure it could very easily be made sugar free/low fat by changing out a few ingredients. Perfect summer dessert!

I LOVE this recipe! The first time I made it I took the suggestions of some other reviews to double the jello. Personally, I thought it was too much jello. I prefer this recipe as is. Also, I've used fresh strawberry's because it's what I had on hand at the time and it came out wonderfully. Just make sure that if you use the fresh strawberrys to follow the directions on the jello box and add the cold water. And definitely make sure the jello sets before pouring it on top...I made that mistake the first time and the jello soaked through the pretzels.

This was absolutely to die for!!!!! I brought it for Father's day and it was a huge hit, everyone was raving over it and I gave the recipe out to several people! The only ingredient I changed was that I used fresh sliced strawberries instead of frozen because the kids and I had just went strawberry picking. And the only thing I did differently with the directions was that I let the jello/strawberry mixture sit in the fridge for 1 hour before pouring it over the cream cheese layer. It turned out perfect! Thank you for this awesome recipe!!!

The kids and I made this together for Father's Day. The only changes I made was to increase the crushed pretzels to two full cups and I used all reduced fat, sugar-free or "light" products where I could. After I mixed the strawberries in, it didn't look like quite enough, so I added in another cup. Noone noticed that it was a lighter dessert and I didn't say anything. It was still as good as it would have been with it's full fat counterparts. I think I could cut back some of the sugar in the "cheesecake" part of this dessert by half next time. As is, we ate it and enjoyed it very much.

I'll one-and-one-half the crust if I make this a 3rd time. I forgot the sugar in the filling the 2nd time and it was definitely edible. Leaving the sugar out of the crust is beyond fine, and substituting some raspberries in the jello tasted absolutely fine.

Wasn't a fan of the pretzel crust, would have preferred graham cracker crust. The filling and strawberry layer were wonderful though.
