Tips and Tricks
Variation:Prepare recipe as directed, substituting melted green candy melts for the semi-sweet chocolate. Decorate with white icing to resemble football fields instead of footballs.
Variation:Omit the peanut butter, potato chips and pretzels. Combine 1/3 cup marshmallow creme and 3/4 cup fruit-flavored sweetened rice cereal. Separate cookies as directed. Top bottom sides of plain cookie halves with cereal mixture; cover with creme-topped cookie halves, creme sides down. Gently press top cookie halves into cereal mixture to secure. Melt 1 oz. white baking chocolate as directed on package. Dip 1 end of each of 24 wooden pop sticks into melted chocolate; insert dipped end of stick into filling in each cookie sandwich. Return to baking sheet. Spread melted semi-sweet chocolate onto tops of cookie sandwiches. Decorate with white icing to resemble footballs. Let stand until frosting is firm.
How to Make Football Cookie Pops:Omit peanut butter, potato chips and pretzels. Melt 1-1/2 pkg. (4 oz. each) semi-sweet chocolate (6 oz.) as directed on package. Use 1/3 of the melted chocolate to attach wooden pop sticks to bottom sides of plain cookie halves. Cover with creme-topped cookie halves, creme sides down. Gently press creme-topped cookie halves into melted chocolate to secure. Spread remaining melted chocolate onto tops of cookie sandwiches. Let stand 20 min. or until firm. Decorate with white icing as directed.
