What is Thanksgiving without a Jell-o salad? This specific salad is the perfect blend of sweet and salty, crunchy and creamy, with a touch of tart added in!
The ingredients:
Bottom Layer
3/4 c. butter
3 T. sugar
2 c. pretzels, finely chopped or crushed
Middle Layer
1 (8-oz.) brick cream cheese, softened
1 (8-oz.) can crushed pineapple, drained
1/4 c. sugar
1 (8-oz.) carton Cool Whip
Top Layer
2 (3-oz.) pkgs. raspberry Jell-O (or 1 (6-oz.) pkg.)
2 c. boiling water
1 bag frozen raspberries
The instructions:
Melt butter and sugar and combine with pretzels. Press into a 9 X 13 inch pan. Bake at 400* for 5 minutes. Let cool completely. While cooling, combine cream cheese, pineapple, and sugar together. Fold in Cool Whip. Pour over bottom layer and smooth over. Combine Jell-O and water, stir until Jell-O is dissolved. Add frozen raspberries and let sit on the counter until thick but not set (about 5-10 minutes; watch closely). Pour over middle layer and refrigerate until completely set.
(This recipe can be changed up with strawberry jello and strawberries if you prefer)

You're AWESOME!
Janet has given me this recipe twice, and I've lost it twice! I didn't want to call and ask for it again, then she would know I'm a
"loser" (of recipes)!
