Cherry pretzel salad combines the salty-sweet crust of your favorite Midwest pretzel salad with the flavors of a cherry cheesecake. With just 30 minutes of hands-on time, this easy dessert deserves a special place at all of your holiday gatherings, game-day parties, and summer cookouts.
There are two desserts you can often find at my family’s holiday get-togethers that I can’t say no to: the classic strawberry pretzel salad and my nana’s easy cheesecake.
I recently found myself wondering what would happen if I took the two recipes and turned them into one. I mean, I had to try it, right?
The result was this cherry pretzel salad recipe, and I gotta say I’m pretty much in love. It’s got the super easy no-bake cheesecake filling from my nana’s recipe, but paired with the salty-sweet pretzel crust that we love in recipes like raspberry pretzel salad and easy pineapple pretzel salad.
The cherry pie filling and Cool Whip are the cherry on top (see what I did there?).
This is what I call a “low-bake” recipe—just bake the crust for 10 minutes, and the rest is made without the oven in just 30 minutes of hands-on time. Let it chill for 4 hours, slice, and let the compliments roll in!
