This is my MIL's salad...she got this at the RV park they stay at in Donna, TX. It's creamy, crunchy, sweet, slightly-salty ...and very light all rolled up into one dish...the first time she made this my SIL and MIL ate the whole bowl!!..it's addictive and often requested!
Ingredients:
2 cups crushed pretzels
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 (20 ounce) can pineapple tidbits, drained
12 ounces cool whip
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
Directions:
1. Mix the crushed pretzels, butter and sugar together.
2. Grease 9x13 pan.
3. Place pretzel mixture in greased pan and bake for 10 minutes at 350°F.
4. Cool slightly and break pieces into chunks.
5. Beat cream cheese until well whipped and fluffy.
6. Add the Cool Whip; blend well.
7. Fold in the pineapple tidbits.
8. Chill- for about 1 hour.
9. About 1/2 hour before serving- add pretzel pieces.
10. Best served same day, otherwise the pretzels will get soggy. For a large group, I'd suggest doubling the recipe.
