Wow the flavour of this is amazing! I used whipped cream as I can\u2019t stand \u201cwhipped topping\u201d and it worked out great. I didn\u2019t have proper sized pan so used a 9\u201d springform and the topping is waaaaay too thick. I first tried the 9x13 pan but it was too big for the amount of crumbs but will increase that portion of the recipe next time and I think it should work. <\/p>","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2019-09-15","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"knollbrookcook"},"reviewBody":"I have made this twice. This is my second review on this dessert. The first time I used the pretzel crust and the second time I used a graham cracker crust. We like the graham crust better. I used pur\u00e9ed strawberries instead of the daiquiri the second time and that worked just fine and I used just plain strawberries chopped up with a little sugar to get the juices going. Frozen strawberries would be better because of the liquid. I also used a 9 x13 dish and it was full. I can\u2019t see how it would fit in an 11 x 7 dish!!!
