I have no idea what the official name of this dessert is. I got it from a friend about 15 years ago. Its a bit time consuming to make but I've never had any leftovers lol. The pretzel crust almost tastes like nuts.

On the low salt pretzels, I haven't found any. I crush them, the salt is normally at the bottom, so i don't transfer the majority of the salt.

I have always used the frozen strawberries with sugar in them. But the other kind can be used also.
