Ingredients

2 cups (500 ml) finely crushed honey pretzels, or regular pretzels with 3 tbsp (45 ml) honey)
1/2 cup (125 ml) butter, melted
2 cups (500 ml) sliced strawberries (plus extras for serving)
1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk (or try making your own)
1/2 cup (4 oz) cream cheese, softened
3 tbsp (45 ml) strawberry gelatin powder
3/4 cup (175 ml) whipping cream

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
  2. Use a food processor or blender to crush the pretzels until they are very fine. Stir in melted butter. Press mixture firmly into the bottom and up onto the sides of a 10-inch pie plate. Bake for 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oven and let cool completely (at least 30 minutes).
  3. Food process or blend strawberries for a few seconds to crush them and release their juices.
  4. Beat condensed milk, cream cheese and gelatin with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. On low speed, add strawberries and beat until just blended.
  5. In a separate bowl, whip the cream at a high speed until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the strawberry mixture. Pour into prepared crust and freeze for 8 to 10 hours (or overnight).
  6. Serve with sliced strawberries on top and eat it quick before it melts!
