Instructions
- Step 1: Make the Pretzel Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, crushed pretzels, and 3 tablespoons of Stevia. Stir until the pretzels are fully coated in the butter mixture. Pour this mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish and press it down firmly to form an even crust. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
- Step 2: Prepare the Cream Cheese Layer: In a separate bowl, beat the low-fat cream cheese and 1 cup of Stevia together until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the sugar-free whipped topping until well combined. Spread this mixture over the cooled pretzel crust, smoothing it out evenly.
- Step 3: Create the Strawberry Topping: In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar-free strawberry gelatin mix until fully dissolved. Add the frozen strawberries and crushed pineapple to the gelatin mixture. Allow it to cool slightly before pouring it over the cream cheese layer in the dish.
- Step 4: Chill and Serve: Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the gelatin is set. Once set, garnish with additional sugar-free whipped topping if desired, slice, and serve chilled.
