Strawberry Margarita Pie

Happy Cinco de Mayo! To celebrate, you could whip up this delicious dessert. Filled with strawberries and complemented by tangy limeade, this will be the perfect end to any Mexican-themed celebration. This comes together quickly, but does need several hours to freeze, so plan ahead!

Start by combining the pretzels and melted butter.

Then press firmly onto the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.

Now, beat cream cheese and sugar in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Gradually add limeade,

beating well after each addition. Stir in crushed strawberries.

Add whipped topping; stir until well blended. Pour over crust.

Freeze several hours or until firm. Remove from freezer; let stand in refrigerator about 15 min. before removing the sides of the pan and then cutting into 16 slices to serve. Serve with extra strawberries for garnish, and lime slices.
