Blueberry Pretzel Fluff- this dessert salad is ultra creamy with the crunch of sugared pretzels. With both blueberry pie filling and fresh blueberries, this creamy concoction is loaded with blueberry flavor.
How To Serve Blueberry Pretzel Fluff
This dessert salad obviously makes a great dessert but it also is a great addition to a BBQ or potluck and I love to serve it alongside burgers or grilled chicken.

How To Make
(More detailed instructions in recipe card below.)
- Make the sugared pretzels. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Stir together crushed pretzels, butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Spread out on a baking sheet and bake 7 minutes. Let cool and then break into pieces.
- Beat together cream cheese and sugar with an electric mixer until fluffy. With mixer on low, beat in Cool Whip.
- Gently mix in blueberry pie filling and fresh blueberries.
- Refrigerate at least 2 hours.
- Before serving, mix half the pretzel mixture in and sprinkle the other half on top.
Recipe Tip
Don’t mix in the pretzels until just before serving because if done in advance, they will get soggy.
Variations
- Mix in 1 cup of mini marshmallows.
- Add chopped pecans to the pretzel mixture before baking.
- Mix in half a teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
Make Ahead and How To Store
