Pretzel crust topped with a sweet cream cheese
layer and strawberry topping!!!
Smart Tip: This recipe works better if you let the strawberries and jello start to gel a little before putting on the cream cheese layer. It keeps it from seeping in to the bottom layers and getting those layers soggy.
Excellent and everyone loves it!

2 C. Pecan halves
4 Tbsp. Butter unsalted and melted
