No Cook Strawberry Cheesecake

My Mom brought over some fresh strawberries from her garden. I wanted something light and refreshing but would still satisfy my sweet tooth. This cheesecake type dessert is what I came up with. This dessert is delicious and impressive enough to serve guest; yet, it’s easy to pull together in minutes.

3. First put 2 tablespoons pretzels in bottom of glass. Top with 1/2 cup strawberry mixture. Top with whipped cream, strawberry and pretzels for garnish.
