Servings: 12
Ingredients

- 1 (3 oz.) box strawberry gelatin mix (such as Jell-O)
- 1 c. boiling water
- 1 c. ice cold water
- 4 lg. fresh strawberries diced
CHEESECAKE PUDDING:
- 1 (3.4 oz.) box instant cheesecake or vanilla pudding mix (not “cook & serve”)

Instructions
- STRAWBERRY JELLO: In a large bowl, pour boiling water over the gelatin mix. Whisk for 2 minutes until completely dissolved. Stir in ice-cold water. Add diced strawberries; stir to combine. Refrigerate for 3-4 hours or until set. Once set, stir it up so you can easily spoon it into the bags.
- CHEESECAKE PUDDING: In a large bowl, whisk together the pudding mix and milk for 2 minutes until thickened. Place in the refrigerator for 5 minutes to set or until ready to serve.
- PRETZELS: Cut open the top of each pretzel bag. Remove a couple of pretzels from each bag to use as a garnish and crush.
- Gently squeeze each bag to crush the pretzels into smaller pieces. Fold down the tops of the bags about 1 inch. Set the bags upright into a basket or casserole dish (or have each person hold their own bag) so the bags can be propped up.
- TO ASSEMBLE: Evenly divide the pudding among the bags. Evenly divide the strawberry gelatin among the bags.
- GARNISHES: Top with a dollop of whipped cream, a fresh strawberry slice, a mini pretzel, and/or crushed pretzels if desired.
Notes
