Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups crushed pretzels
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 cup diced strawberries
  • 1 box strawberry jello
  • 1 packet plain gelatin (Knox)
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream
  • Cool Whip, for garnish

Preparation

Step 1

Combine the pretzels, sugar, and butter and stir until combined. Press into the bottom and sides of a 9 inch pie plate. Refrigerate.
Stir the boiling water and both gelatins together until dissolved. Add the ice cream and stir until melted. Make sure to add the ice cream while the water is still very hot. The mixture will start to thicken quickly, so stir in the ice cream quickly. Stir in the diced strawberries. Spoon into the pretzel crust. Refrigerate a few hours. Top with Cool Whip before serving. Cut into 10 slices.
Notes

*The crust will be slightly crumbly. If you want to bake the pie crust for 10 minutes at 350 degrees, it will be harder. But that will take away from the NO BAKE part of the pie.
