Prello Salad

I know, this is really called Pretzel Jell-O Salad. But we are always mixing it up to prello jetzel salad- I have no idea why. So now we just call it Prello salad:)
This is one of my favorites. It is so refreshing and pretty too.
Once while typing this recipe up for a friend, I accidentally told her to add CRAM cheese. She called rather confused, wondering what that was. We laughed for a while over that one!

2 c crushed pretzels
¾ c melted butter
3 Tbsp sugar
Mix and press into the bottom of a 9x13 pan bake at 350* (325* for glass pan) for 8 minutes. Let cool completely.

8 oz cream cheese
1 cup sugar
8 oz cool whip
Beat sugar and cream cheese. Fold in Cool Whip. Spread over pretzels, sealing edges against the edge of the pan.

6 oz raspberry Jell-O
2 cups boiling water
1-10 oz package frozen raspberries
1-10 oz package mixed berries
(or whatever combination Jell-O and fruit you like)
Dissolve Jell-O in boiling water. Add berries and stir. Allow to sit for 10 minutes (Jell-O should be soft set by then). Pour over cream cheese mixture. Chill until ready to serve.
