Ingredients needed for this Pretzel Peach Jello Dessert:
2 cups pretzel sticks, crushed
1 stick butter, melted
3 Tbsp. granulated sugar
8 oz.cream cheese, softened
8 oz Cool Whip
1 cup granulated sugar
6 oz Peach Jello mix
2 cups boiling water
3 large fresh peaches, sliced
Can I use another fruit instead of peaches?
If you’re not a fan of peaches, you can certainly substitute the peaches with a different fruit. Some of the fruits that you can use to substitute the peaches are; apples, strawberries, blueberries, or even cherries. Keep in mind that if you change the fruit , you most likely will need to change the gelatin as well to match the fruit( unless it’s apple, because it actually pairs with peach gelatin). If you decide to use a different fruit, use the same amount that is called for the recipe. For an example; Instead of 3 large peaches, use ¾ cup of strawberries. Instead of 3 large peaches, use 3 large apples.

Can I use generic gelatin instead of Jello?
Yes, you sure can! Instead of using the actual Jello brand, you can use a generic store brand. Just be sure to follow the directions on the back of the box, because they might be a tad bit different from Jello. Also some generic gelatin brands take a tad bit longer to solidify, so you may need to let this dessert sit a tad bit longer than stated in the directions.
