Brunch time with my family is one of the best parts of our weekends. It’s just us being lazy on either Saturday or Sunday, where we eat, listen to music, and talk. For these endless talking times, dessert is a must. I prepared this delicious strawberry pretzel salad that I got the recipe from my friend Christine.
Of course, I tweak her recipe and make it my own. Here is how I prepared it.
Ingredients
8oz of cream cheese, softened to room temperature
2 cups diced strawberries
1 cup of chopped pretzel
1 cup of chopped pecans
½ cup of brown sugar
½ cup of white sugar
½ cup of melted butter
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp of vanilla
1 tsp of lemon zest
1 tbsp of anisette liquor
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 400degrees F
In a bowl, mix together the chopped pretzels, chopped pecans, brown sugar, and melted butter.
Then spread them on a baking sheet and bake for 8 minutes. Remove from the oven, let it cool, and break into small pieces.
Mix together the cream cheese, white sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, anisette liquor, and lemon zest. Place in refrigerator
Dice the strawberries.
Stir together the diced strawberries, sugared pretzels, and pecans into the cream cheese mixture.
Decorate with strawberries, mint leaves, and lemon zest.
I genuinely hope that you take time to enjoy the summer, it’s almost over, so remember to make each day count, and treat your loved ones with this delicious recipe.
Until next time, Marjie
Wow that looks really yummy and refreshing!
It was indeed refreshing!
This one looks like a healthy diet! A fruit salad will always be a great choice!
So true!
Strawberry salad is something I would like to try. Never heard of this before. But it sounds so good.
Indeed!
yummm…I love the taste of strawberries in salads, they just add a lemony and pleasant taste to the mix, love it.
I agree!
Yum! My family loves strawberries and this is such a great way to incorporate it in a form of a salad. I can’t wait to try it!

Try and let me know, Maureen!
Wow, this looks so tasty! I know my twins would enjoy it!
Go for it!
That sounds wonderful except I would leave out the zest, because I don’t like the taste of it
Do that, and make it your own, may be you can grate white chocolate on top.
Strawberry salad looks so regreshing. I bet it’s healthy for you.
This one was really refreshing.
This is unique. I’d try this in a heartbeat too.
I hope you like it as much as I did when you do try.
Sounds like a nice delightful recipe. Thank you for sharing. 🤗
