If I were to use Cool Whip, a regular sized tub, would this take place of 2 envelopes Whipped topping and milk along with vanilla? This sounds so great and really want to make this for this weekend but I always use the low fat Kool Whip. Thanks!

Has anyone tried this using Cool Whip instead of Dream Whip? If so what are the proportions?Thanks. Barbara

I put my crackers, nuts and cookies (pretzels work too) in a sealable sandwich or quart bag. I can crush them to my desired amount and then all I have to do is throw away the bag or if there are leftovers seal them up and store them

The easiest way to crush pretzels is to put them in the blender or food processor. No mess, although you have to clean the appliance. I used my blender to finely chop pecans for Christmas cookies this year & everyone was very pleased with the results.

I too have been enjoying this recipe for many years. It is really good with peaches & peach jello and also blueberries with strawberry or raspberry jello in place of the pie filling. Does anyone have a good way to way to crush the pretzels? I end up with them all over the place!

This brought back memoriies of a desert a neighbor made. Any one with specific health problems can benefit from the alternatives given the rest can enjoy. Remember moderation in all things including moderation - any expert in nutrition will tell you a little splurge is good now and then.

I am also a super dessert lover, and I don't think sweet desserts should always be a big concern to our health. That's why I try my best, most of the time, to search and make healthy and delicious desserts for myself and my family. I think that's the true love to my family.

If you must watch your salt intake, but love the crunch of pretzels, use no-salt pretzels, that's what I do, and my grandson, who is very picky eater, loves the no-salt pretzels. Great recipe!

My cousin makes something similar to this and I am going to make it with my grandchildren next month when we have our Valentines day brunch with granny, :) I love this dessert.

I'm not bragging, just admitting that I am a salt addict. This is not too salty and I do not limit my carbs. I eat everything in moderation. Please don't criticize this normal dessert. It is very tasty and guiltless for normal people. I'm 64, I know these things.
