**** Here’s a re-run of some of last year’s Super Bowl snack ideas. Check back on Thurs. to see what I’m cooking up this year.


Sunday is the big day football fans.

It’s once again Superbowl time, of course…Saints vs Colts.

(I’ll give you one guess as to who I am rooting for in the big match-up!)

I found two fun football recipes to keep the troops happy during the big game….

Football Cheeseball and Crackers & Chocolate Krispie Bites

Football Cheeseball and Crackers

2 pkg. (8 oz. each) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
1 pkg.  (8 oz.) KRAFT Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
1/2 cup KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/2 cup  MIRACLE WHIP Dressing
1/4 tsp. pepper
2   green onions, chopped
1 cup chopped PLANTERS Pecans
2 Tbsp.  pimiento strips
RITZ Crackers

Directions:

BEAT first 5 ingredients with mixer until blended. Stir in onions. Refrigerate several hours.

FORM into football shape; coat with nuts.

ADD pimientos for the lacing. Serve with crackers.

Chocolate Krispie Football Bites

6 squares BAKER’S Semi-Sweet Chocolate
1/2 cup  light corn syrup
1 Tbsp. butter or margarine
1/2 tsp.  vanilla
4 cups cocoa sweetened rice cereal
White decorating gel


Directions:

MICROWAVE chocolate, corn syrup and butter in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2-1/2 min., stirring after 1-1/2 min. Blend in vanilla.

ADD cereal; mix well. Cool 10 min. Shape into 18 (3-inch-long) football shapes with lightly moistened hands. Place on large sheet of wax paper; cool completely.

USE decorating gel to add “lacings” to “footballs.” Let stand until gel is firm.
