Patriotic Pretzel Dessert for the 4th of July

Pretzel Dessert


I realize that this make ahead recipe has been around for a long time, but think outside of the box and get creative with it.

Make it the day before giving the pretzels time to soften.  It will keep for about 3 days in the refrigerator.








This is made in a 9" by 13" pan. Because recipes made in a pan don't look "pretty" after a serving or two are removed, I like to put it on individual serving dishes.  For a potluck or barbecue, use clear plastic cups as seen in the second photo.  It makes a pretty presentation and there isn't a dirty pan to clean up.  (I also like to do the same with banana pudding.)  

Variations can easily be made by substituting a different flavor of jello and other fruits.  Try orange or lime jello with pineapple and bananas. I add blueberries for the Memorial Day and the 4th of July.
