Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Mix together the pretzels, 4 1/2 tablespoons sugar and melted butter. Press into the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan. Bake for 10 minutes, or until lightly toasted. Set aside to cool completely.
• In a medium bowl, beat the sugar and cream cheese until smooth. Fold in whipped topping. Spread evenly over the cooled crust. Refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the gelatin mix and boiling water. Mix in frozen strawberries, and stir until thawed. Pour over cream cheese mixture in pan. Refrigerate until completely chilled, at least 1 hour.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400.
• For the crust, mix the pretzels, butter, and 3 tablespoons of sugar.
• Press this mixture into a 9 x 13 inch pan and bake for 7 minutes.
• Set aside and allow to cool.
• In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese and 3/4 cup of sugar.
• Fold in the whipped topping, and spread over the cooled crust.
• Refrigerate until well chilled.
• In a small bowl, dissolve the gelatin in the boiling water, and allow to cool slightly.
• Add the strawberries and pineapple, and pour over the cream cheese mixture. Refrigerate until serving time.
• To serve, cut slices and serve with a dollop of whipped topping or whipped cream.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350*F.
• In a bowl combine pretzels, ¼ cup white sugar and butter. Mix well.
• Spread on the bottom of a 9x13 casserole dish and press down to create a tight crust.
• Bake for 10 minutes then remove from the oven and cool completely.
• Once the crust is cooled, make cream cheese layer.
• In a bowl blend 1 cup sugar cream cheese and vanilla together.
• FOLD in the cool whip.
• GENTLY spread this mixture over cooled crust. I've found it easiest to place globs all over then gently spread them together.
• Make sure that white filling touches all sides of the pan. This will prevent jello mixture from sliding UNDER the cream cheese layer and making the crust soggy.
• Chill while you make the top layer.
• In a medium bowl, stir together jello and boiling water. Mix well until jello is fully dissolved.
• Add strawberries and mix until strawberries are thawed.
• Mixture should begin to thicken as the frozen berries will quickly bring the temperature down. When mixture is egg white consistency (thick, but soupy) (about 10 minutes) pour over the cream cheese layer.
• Chill for 1 hour or longer, until the jello is set.
