For a richer flavor, use salted butter in the crust.
Feel free to experiment with different pie fillings such as strawberry, blueberry, or even apple.
To prevent the pretzel crust from becoming soggy, make sure it is completely cooled before adding the cream cheese layer.
Garnish with a sprinkle of extra crushed pretzels or a dusting of confectioners' sugar for an elegant presentation.
If you're short on time, you can skip the baking step and simply press the pretzel mixture into the pan. The crust will be a bit softer, but still delicious.
