Strawberry Icebox Pie With A Crisp Pretzel Crust

"This isn’t your grocery store’s strawberry pie. No jello packets, no neon red goo, and nothing cloyingly sweet. Just real strawberries, a salty-crunchy homemade pretzel crust, and a creamy topping that’s good enough to eat by the spoonful. This strawberry icebox pie skips the shortcuts and lands you somewhere between nostalgia and “Wow, did I really make this?” You’ll start with frozen strawberries that get simmered down into a thick, jammy base. Fresh strawberries are added later for a burst of texture and flavor. Everything sets up inside a salty pretzel crust that gives each slice a little crunch to balance all that sweet. However, you could swap the crust with a graham cracker crust if you like. "
