COMFORT FOOD RECIPES FOR WINTER


Summer is here.
So, we're going to bring you some easy refreshing recipes for Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and Desserts. Enjoy.


recipe Recipe: Strawberry Pretzel Pie
Taste of Home

This no-bake strawberry pretzel pie recipe is salty, sweet and perfect for potlucks, picnics and just about any gathering under the warm summer sun.

When it comes to the perfect warm-weather dessert, our recipe for strawberry pretzel pie ticks all the boxes: creamy, fluffy, fruity and cool. The combo of strawberries and pretzels is popular in southern cooking, but you’ll find strawberry pretzel pie fans all over the country.

Mini pretzels are one of the best ingredients for a crumb crust because their saltiness complements the sweet, creamy filling. This no-bake dessert is loaded with fruit flavor, setting in the fridge thanks to strawberry gelatin, with fresh berries in the filling and on top of the pie. Serve it on the hottest day of the year or whenever you need an easy fruit-forward pie—it will make everyone swoon.
Recipe by Molly Allen
    Ingredients:
  • 4 cups miniature pretzels
  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup boiling water
  • 1 package (6 ounces) strawberry gelatin
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled, divided
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream, divided
  • 1 jar (7 ounces) marshmallow creme
  • 2/3 cup whipped cream cheese
  • 2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk

  • Preparation Instructions:
  • Place pretzels in a food processor; pulse until chopped. Add butter and sugar; pulse until combined. Reserve 1/3 cup pretzel mixture for topping. Press remaining mixture onto bottom of a greased 9-in. springform pan. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a bowl, add boiling water to gelatin; stir 2 minutes or until completely dissolved. Stir in lemon juice. Refrigerate 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Chop half the strawberries; slice remaining berries and reserve for topping. In a large bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Beat marshmallow creme, cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk into cooled gelatin mixture until blended. Gently fold in chopped strawberries and whipped cream. Pour into crust.
  • Refrigerate, covered, until firm, 4-6 hours. Beat remaining 1 cup heavy cream until stiff peaks form; spread over pie. Top with reserved strawberries and pretzel mixture.
