How To Make cranberry pretzel salad

Step 1

First layer: Mix and press into 9 x 13 inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Cool.

Step 2

Second layer: Cream together sugar and cream cheese then fold in Cool Whip. When pretzel mixture is cool, spread the cream cheese mixture over crust. Chill for 10 min to let the cream cheese mixture set up.
Step 3

Third layer: Dissolve Jello in 1 1/2 cup boiling water. Then add the cranberry sauce. Chill just till jello starts to thicken and is still pourable. Spread the jello mixture over the cream cheese layer. Store in refrigerator until ready to eat.
Step 4

Sometimes I add cool whip to the top also, and sprinkle with chopped pecans or walnuts.
