EASY PINEAPPLE PRETZEL SALAD
Can be used for a party dip for pretzels or a side salad depending on your choice. I usually double this recipe for parties. If you want to use for a dip for pretzels, one batch should be enough. I recommend crushing the pretzels using a rolling pin. I recommend not to add pretzel mixture to pineapple mixture until ready to serve.

PINEAPPLE PRETZEL SALAD
My aunt always made this delicious, light dessert...the pretzels are just the right saltiness to the sweetness of the whipped cream and pineapple...There are two ways you can serve this...either add the candied pretzels, or if you won't be serving for some time...stir them in right before serving...I usually add a sprinkle or two...

Steps:
- 1. Combine the crushed pretzels, melted butter, and sugar. Stir together until thoroughly mixed.. Spread the pretzel mixture out on a small cookie sheet that has sides. Place in an oven preheated to 425 degree F and bake for 5 - 6 minutes. Remove and allow pretzels to cool.
- 2. Combine the cream cheese and sugar together in a mixing bowl and beat until the sugar is well mixed into the cream cheese. Add the whipped topping and pineapple. Beat just until they are mixed in evenly. Store in the refrigerator.
- 3. Add the crushed pretzel mixture to the cream cheese mixture just before serving.
- 4. I sprinkle a few pretzels on top right before serving...yum!
Tips:
- For the Pretzel Crust: - Use unsalted butter to control the saltiness of the crust. - Use a food processor to finely crush the pretzels for a uniform, crumbly texture. - Press the pretzel mixture firmly into the pie plate to create a solid crust.
- For the Pineapple Filling: - Use fresh pineapple for the best flavor and texture. If using canned pineapple, be sure to drain it well. - Add a touch of lemon juice to brighten the flavor of the pineapple. - Use a blender or food processor to puree the pineapple until smooth.
- For the Whipped Cream Topping: - Use heavy cream for the best results. Half-and-half or milk will not whip up as well. - Chill the heavy cream and beaters before whipping to help the cream whip up faster and more easily. - Add powdered sugar or vanilla extract to taste.
- For Assembly and Serving: - Spread the pineapple filling evenly over the pretzel crust. - Top with the whipped cream topping. - Chill the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. - Garnish with additional crushed pretzels, pineapple chunks, or maraschino cherries, if desired.
