Ingredients

  • 2 cups crushed pretzels

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar (divided)

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened

  • 2 cups powdered sugar

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream, whipped to stiff peaks

  • 1 (6 oz) package strawberry gelatin (Jell-O)

  • 2 cups boiling water

  • 4 cups fresh strawberries, sliced

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Mix crushed pretzels, ½ cup sugar, and melted butter in a bowl until combined. Press mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes and then cool completely.
  • In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese with remaining ¼ cup sugar until smooth. Fold in whipped cream gently until fully combined. Spread this mixture evenly over the cooled pretzel crust.
  • Dissolve strawberry gelatin in boiling water, stirring well. Let it cool to room temperature but not set.
  • Arrange sliced strawberries evenly over the cream cheese layer. Pour cooled gelatin over the strawberries. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.

Notes

  • For extra crunch, sprinkle chopped pretzels on top before serving.
  • Substitute fresh strawberries with frozen (thawed) if needed.
  • Make sure gelatin is cooled before pouring to prevent melting the cream layer.

A playful twist on a fruit salad, this sweet and tangy “sugar salad” blends juicy fruits with a creamy, sugary dressing — perfect for potlucks, brunches, or summer treats.

Origin Sugar Salad

Sugar salad is a nostalgic dish commonly found in Southern and Midwestern American gatherings, where fruit meets a whipped, creamy dressing often made with sugar, sour cream, or whipped topping.

What I Love About This Recipe

It’s like dessert disguised as a salad — fruity, creamy, and lightly sweet with a refreshing chill. It’s a crowd-pleaser that both kids and adults can’t resist.
