Time 55m

Yield 18 to 20 treats

Number Of Ingredients 8

Cooking spray
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
One 10-ounce bag mini marshmallows
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Kosher salt
6 cups cocoa-flavored crispy rice cereal
About 12 vanilla- or chocolate-flavored candy chews, such as Tootsie Rolls

Steps:

  • Coat a wooden spoon and 1/3-cup dry measuring cup with cooking spray. Line a baking sheet with parchment, and coat lightly with cooking spray.
  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the marshmallows, honey, vanilla and a pinch of salt, and stir with the prepared wooden spoon until the marshmallows have completely melted, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the cereal and stir until the mixture is fully combined.
  • Use the prepared measuring cup to scoop out the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in mounds. Let them cool for a few seconds to make them easier to work with. Spray your hands with cooking spray, and firmly press and pat each mound into a football shape. Let the treats sit at room temperature to harden slightly, about 20 minutes.
  • Cut the candy chews lengthwise into quarters. Roll the pieces into thin ropes and cut into short and long lengths to make laces. Arrange the candy on top of each football, pressing in to help them adhere. Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • If your marshmallows are not fresh, you can soften them in the microwave for a few seconds before using.
  • To make the treats even more gooey, add an extra 1/2 cup of marshmallow cream.
  • If you don't have any football-shaped cookie cutters, you can use any other shape you like, such as stars, hearts, or circles.
  • For a fun and festive touch, decorate the football treats with sprinkles, chocolate chips, or melted chocolate.
  • These treats are best enjoyed fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Cocoa Krispie football treats are a fun and easy snack or dessert that is perfect for game day or any other occasion. They are made with just a few simple ingredients and can be decorated to match your favorite team colors. These treats are sure to be a hit with kids and adults alike.
