Super Brownies for the Super Bowl
Need a Super Bowl brownie? Not many people drop the catch when passed a plate of super bowl brownies! Since you’ve probably got a brownie mix sitting in your cupboard (maybe nearing it’s eat by date), here’s an easy treat to bring to your super bowl potluck. It’s cheap, easy and crowd pleasing.
A plate of brownies is great for any occasion, but for the super bowl they should be super special.Super Bowl Brownie Instructions
Instructions for Superbowl Brownies:
1.Start with your favorite brownie mix and bake according to the package.
-
2. While it’s in the oven, take a piece of
construction paper (anything a little thicker than
paper) then draw and cut out the shape of a
football. See the pictures below to decide if you
want a large or small football stencil. Then cut a
few lines in the center to resemble the white
stitches where the football is sewn together.
-
3. Once the brownie cools (10-15 minutes), you can
either:
-
A) Place the stencil on top of the brownie and
shake a confectioners sugar shaker (or sift
confectioners sugar) all around the football
pattern if you wish to keep the brownies in the
pan. OR
-
B) Flip the brownies onto a plate and decorate the
other side. OR
-
C) We recommend this option. Cut the brownies
into pieces and place them on a plate. Then use
a smaller football shape to decorate each
brownie slice. For this option, you may want to
use a white cake decorating tube (frosting) for
the stitches on the football since it is hard to
cut the center stitches on the smaller shape
stencil (but we just used sugar).
Part of the Problem
Oh, if you don’t have a confectioners sugar shaker you might want to get one in time for Valentine’s Day, hearts are easier to cut out than footballs anyways. We recommend the Sugar Shaker from Pampered Chef because it has a lid to keep out dust while it sits in the cupboard. The sugar shaker also works great to “dress up” french toast on the weekend!
