In reply to Marianna Fleming. So strange, Marianna! I make this every year and it's always gobbled up!

I made this recipe for Thanksgiving this year. I served it up in plastic cups and it was visually appealing upon presentation with the layers thus the 2 stars. However, everyone kind of just tasted it with one or two dips of their fork and left it. A few notes – 400 degrees for 10 minutes is too long for a thin layer of pretzels in a pan. The middle filling of pineapple cream tasted ‘weird’ with the white chocolate pudding mix in it, persons were asking me what that was. And last, I could not get the cranberry sauce to properly dissolve in the liquid jello mixture. Maybe it has to still be very hot for that to work? But I did make the sparkling cranberry’s to add to the top and those were tasty by themselves – just keep them off the jello.

In reply to Suzanne. Crazy Suzanne- I've made this (and have had family members make this) and it turned out great, exactly like the pictures.

partial disaster! the directions seem to be wrong. a 3 oz box of jello and 1 cup hot water yield nothing! The layer was so skimpy even with the can of whole berry cranberry. My crust was fine, the middle layer a little thick and the final step disaster. I had to go to the store and get another 3 oz box of jello 5 hours before guest arrive and add more jello to the top. Also!!! to this additional box of jello I added the 1 cup boiling water and 1 cup of cold sprite. and it brought the layer up to the top of the 9×13 dish.
no way these people didn’t get the same result. never again.

Hi really want to make this recipe! I’m wondering is there anything I can use in place of crushed pineapple? My family likes things “ smooth” without chunks of fruit etc. can I just use pineapple juice? Or do I need something else to make it thicker?
Thanks

In reply to Paula Isenberg. You can use raspberry or cherry and it'll taste great!
