Tailgate Recipe – Football Krispie Treats Football Snack Idea
3 tablespoons butter or margarine
4 cups miniature marshmallows
6 cups crispy rice cereal
1 cup semi-sweet baking chips for topping
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon water
In a large saucepan, melt butter or margarine over low heat. Add marshmallows a cup at a time and stir until well blended.
Turn off heat when marshmallows are melted.
Add cereal slowly and stir with a buttered spoon or spatula to combine.
Place in a large (buttered) baking pan (cereal should be no more than 1″ deep) and cool. Use a football shaped cookie cutter
to cut out football shapes after the cereal mixture has cooled.
Meanwhile, melt 1 cup semisweet baking chips. I used the microwave on 50% power, 30 seconds at a time, until chips melt together.
Spread over each football and let cool until firm.
Are you a big football fan and do you watch football?
Jennifer says
These look so cute & tasty! I’m not a big football fan but I always watch the Super Bowl – more for the commercials. & half-time show.
Raquel says
I know what you mean Jennifer – those commercials are fun to watch too! I love Bruno Mars too!
Tamara says
Very cute and I’m sure delicious because you can’t go wrong with a spin on an old classic, I say.
What blows my mind is that football is already on its way out. Isn’t the SuperBowl soon? Under a month, anyway!
Raquel says
Yes Tamara the Super Bowl is a little over 3 weeks away! I love any excise to make these – you are right, they never get old!
Alex says
