Directions: |
Directions:1. Preheat oven to 350º. For crust, finely crush pretzels in resealable plastic bag. Melt butter and add crushed pretzels and sugar; mix well. Press mixture onto bottom of 9x13 inch pan. Bake 10 minutes. Cool completely.
2. For filling, beat cream cheese and margarita mix until well blended. Fold in 2 cups of the whipped topping. Carefully spread cream cheese mixture evenly over crust. Refrigerate while preparing strawberry layer.
3. Stir boiling water into gelatin; stir until completely dissolved. Add frozen strawberries and stir until strawberries separate and gelatin is thickened (a spoon drawn through mixture will leave an impression). Whisk in 3 c. of the whipped topping. Pour over cream cheese layer, spreading to edges. Refrigerate 3 hours to set.
4. Cut dessert into 15 squares. Garnish each serving with remaining whipped topping. Top with fresh strawberry and lime slices, if desired. |
