Strawberry Pecan Pretzel Salad

• 1 cup crushed pretzels
• ½ cup chopped pecans
• ¾ cup brown sugar
• ¾ cup butter, melted
• 2 cups diced strawberries
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 8 oz whipped topping

Mix together crushed pretzels, chopped pecans, brown sugar and melted butter

 

Spread on a large baking sheet with sides (I used my jelly roll pan) and bake at 400 degrees for 7 minutes. Allow the mixture to cool and then break it into small pieces.

 

Beat together softened cream cheese, granulated sugar and vanilla.

 

Fold in whipped topping.

 

Before serving, stir the diced strawberries and sugared pretzels and pecans into the cream cheese mixture.
