This strawberry pretzel salad recipe is the perfect dessert to make in one big pan or in individual serving containers. This is an awesome option because it’s more convenient for your guests to serve themselves.

Each layer of this delicious recipe is super easy to make. The sweet strawberry compote, smooth cream cheese and salty pretzel crust combine perfectly.

Don’t be afraid of the prep time of this recipe because most of it is waiting for the strawberries to soak and release those sweet juices.

We love this recipe because it’s so versatile! If you’re feeling a little creative, reduce the strawberries to 1 pound and add a pound of your favorite berries, like blueberries or raspberries. Yum!
