Set aside to cool. In a mixing bowl, using an electric mixer at medium speed, beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth. Fold in the thawed whipped topping. Spread the mixture evenly over the baked, cooled pretzel crust. Chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. Stir the strawberry gelatin powder and boiling water together in a bowl.
