Bruegger's Bagels, Greensboro NC

If you want a freakin' foodgasmic bagel then I suggest taking a pit stop in one of Bruegger's Bagels locations!

These are Bruegger's homemade cinnamon sugar bagels. Left is with strawberry cream cheese, for the sweeter taste and on the right is plain cream cheese.

In honor of Easter Sunday, I am posting my mom's famous dessert she makes every year. 

DISCLAIMER: Please read entire section of directions before proceeding to measure out ingredients or mix anything.

2 cups crushed pretzels, strained
3/4 cup of melted butter
1 cup sugar, plus 4 tbsp of sugar
1 (8oz) package of cream cheese
2 cups of Cool Whip
1 (6oz) package of strawberry Jello
1 package of frozen strawberries (16 oz)

Bottom Layer: Place pretzels in a plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin. Strain. The pretzels should measure 2 cups after crushing. Mix pretzels with melted butter and 4 tbsp of sugar; press in bottom of glass dish (13x9x2 inch). Bake at 350 degrees F for 8 minutes. Cool.
Center Layer: Mix cream cheese with 1 cup of sugar. Add 2 cups of Cool Whip. Beat until smooth and spread over pretzel base.

Top Layer: Mix package of strawberry Jello, using 2 cups of boiling water and 1 pint of frozen strawberries (partially thawed). Let this set until thick enough to pour over center layer. Chill thoroughly before serving.
