Inspired by the classic Strawberry Pretzel Salad, this frozen treat will charm your family and friends with it’s sweet and slightly salty flavors. Homemade Strawberry Pretzel Ice Cream Recipe perfect for your Summer gatherings!
Yep, you got it… Strawberries & Pretzels! It’s a take off the classic Strawberry Pretzel Salad that so many of us know and love. The tangy strawberry Jell-0 paired with a sweet cream cheese layer on top of a bed of pretzels. If you’ve never had it before, it may seem a little strange, the salty and sweet combination, but it’s actually really good!

Here’s a fantastic example of the fun dessert from My Baking Addiction. If you haven’t ever tried it, you should whip up a batch, it’s really good. I used this recipe as the inspiration for my new ice cream flavor.
Last week, I started a new series for the next few months… ICE CREAM! I LOVE homemade ice cream and I thought it would be fun to go back to our roots and learn the art of homemade ice cream. For my first ice cream post, It was my ice cream 101 if you will. I shared a fantastic ice cream base, The Best Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream recipe… That vanilla recipe is GREAT on it’s own, but it is also a fantastic base for all kinds of different flavors.
All I had to do was add a few more ingredients to that recipe to make my strawberry pretzel ice cream. Here is the recipe…
Serve this on a nice warm Summer day and your family and friends will be blown away with this fun flavor mixture!

Just made this today and it is sooooooo delicious and easy to make!! I don’t think the base I made was as cold as yours because it took about 30 mins to get to the “soft serve” consistency in the ice cream maker. Still came out delicious! Thank you for sharing your recipe!!
