Some people throw a Super Bowl party to, you know, watch football, but us? We’re just as invested in the FOOD, and fun dips, snacks, wings, pizza, and more are a must for our watch parties. Our spreads are known for being so elaborate, they’ve even pulled avid fans away from the game. To keep everyone’s eyes on the prize (even those who don’t know their quarterbacks from their touchdowns), we like to tuck a few stadium- and football-shaped foods onto our tables. They’re easy to make, fun to eat, and best of all, SO CUTE. Really, they’re a guaranteed win, no matter how well your team does.
You can also take both sweet and savory into snack stadium territory. Use our brownie sundae snack stadium and our football field dip as inspiration, then get creative and make one of your very own.
These sugar cookies are so easy to design, even the kids can get in on it—turn it into a game day activity the whole fam can do together! Hot tip: Freeze your cut-out cookie dough for 10 minutes before baking to ensure they hold their adorable football shape.
