Fluffy Pineapple Pretzel Mix (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temp.
02 -
2 cups heavy cream.
03 -
1 cup fluffy powdered sugar.
04 -
1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
05 -
1 can (20 oz) of crushed pineapple, drained thoroughly.
06 -
1/4 cup white sugar.
07 -
1/4 cup melted butter.
08 -
1 cup large, chopped pretzel pieces.
# Instructions:
01 -
Set your oven to 400°F. Put down parchment paper on a baking sheet with edges.
02 -
Combine pretzels, butter, and sugar in a bowl. Spread evenly over the parchment-lined tray. Bake for 5–7 minutes, letting them crisp up. Let them cool down all the way.
03 -
Use a hand mixer and beat the cream cheese until it's soft and fluffy. Slowly add heavy cream, vanilla, and powdered sugar. Whip until stiff peaks hold their shape.
04 -
Gently fold in the pineapple and most of the cooled pretzels, saving some for topping. Mix until it all comes together.
05 -
Spoon into a serving dish. Sprinkle the extra pretzels on top or serve in smaller cups with whipped cream, pretzels, and pineapple as garnishes.
# Notes:
01 -
Make sure to press out all the extra juice from the pineapple.
02 -
Add pretzel pieces right before eating so they stay crunchy.
03 -
Fresh pineapple works if it's finely chopped.
