Cover the pan with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until the gelatin is fully set. (4 hours)
For a richer flavor, toast the walnuts lightly before chopping.
Ensure the crust is completely cooled before adding the cream cheese layer to prevent it from melting.
If you don't have frozen strawberries, you can use fresh ones. Just be sure to adjust the amount of water in the gelatin mixture accordingly.
To easily crush the soda crackers, place them in a zip-top bag and use a rolling pin or meat mallet to crush them.
Feel free to experiment with different flavors of gelatin, such as raspberry or cherry.

Jan 11, 2025I found that letting the gelatin mixture chill a bit longer before pouring it over the cream cheese layer helped prevent it from seeping into the cream cheese.
