Just two more sleeps until the big game and you’ve got your Super Bowl Snack basics down: the seven layer dip, hotdogs and bottomless bowls of chips. You made cupcakes last year, so what’s easy and can get the kids involved too? Three words: Rice Krispie Footballs.
This recipe is great for picky-eaters, it has a few key ingredients and you can mix it all in one pot. Bonus: here’s how to clean the marshmallow out of clothing after your kids have wiped their sticky little hands on their pants: Removing Marshmallow from Clothing.

- Using the white decorative icing, draw out the football stitching to complete the snack
