  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a medium bowl, combine crushed pretzels, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix well.
  • Press the pretzel mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish to form a crust.
  • Bake the pretzel crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then remove and let cool completely.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat together softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.
  • Fold in the whipped topping, crushed pineapple, mini marshmallows, and chopped nuts (if using) until well combined.
  • Spread the pineapple mixture over the cooled pretzel crust evenly.
  • Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set.
  • Before serving, garnish with red and blue sprinkles for a festive touch.
