Great alternative to a cookie crust! I let my kids crush the pretzels in baggies, with plastic hammers- it's very efficient and quick! My crust didn't hold together until after it had cooled- when I took it out of the oven, it was still crumbly, and looked greasy from the butter. However, after cooling, it was firm, and frosted and sliced easily. I've also used this crust with a cream cheese "sauce"- 1 8oz box cream cheese, 1/3 cup sugar, a squeeze of lime juice, and a tsp.vanilla. Not as fluffy, but tasty!

I made this for my Spa Party, and it was a hit. The pretzle crust was such a nice change from the ordinary sugar cookie crust. Thank you for a wonderful, refreshing dessert that paired well with a crisp bottle of Reisling.

Wonderful crust. So nice to have an alternative to the typical sugar cookie. The topping was easy to make and delicious. The only negative was the time it took to crush the pretzels. I will have to try the food processor next time although that may make the crumbs too fine. I liked having some crunch. This recipe is a keeper!
