FOR THE CRUST:

Mix crushed pretzels with softened butter (or margarine) and sugar.

Press into a 9x13" pan.

Bake at 350 degrees for 7-10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.

FOR THE FRUIT LAYER:

Dissolve jello in boiling water. While hot, add to chilled strawberries, and cool until mixture begins to set.

FOR THE CREAM CHEESE LAYER:

Meanwhile, beat cream cheese and sugar until fluffy. Fold in a small container of Cool Whip.

Spread cream cheese mixture evenly over cooled crust.

When gelatin mixture begins to set, spoon gelatin mixture over top of cream cheese.

Refrigerate until firm or at least 1 hour before serving.
