3/4 c. melted butter
3 tbsp. sugar, plus 3/4 c. sugar
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese
1 (8 oz.) container whipped topping
2 (3 oz.) pkg. strawberry gelatin
2 c. boiling water
2 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen strawberries

Preheat oven to 400°F. For the crust, mix the pretzels, butter, and 3 tablespoons sugar. Press this mixture into a 9 by 13-inch pan and bake for 7 minutes. Set aside and allow to cool.

In a mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese and 3/4 cup sugar. Fold in whipped topping, and spread over cooled crust. Refrigerate until well chilled.

In a small bowl, dissolve gelatin in boiling water, and allow to cool slightly. Add strawberries and pineapple, and pour over cream cheese mixture. Refrigerate until serving time.

To serve, cut slices and serve with a dollop of whipped topping.
