Peanut Butter Cookie Footballs


Happy late Super Bowl! Here are some cute and delicious cookies that are perfect for a football party or gathering.

Ingredients:

1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
1 1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

Design:
1 - 2 cups of chocolate chips
white frosting

Instructions:

In a large bowl, combine the butter, peanut butter, white sugar, and brown sugar and blend until smooth. Next, add the eggs and mix well.

In a separate bowl, combine and mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Once mixed, slowly add it to the bowl with the wet ingredients while mixing.

Once well mixed, refrigerate the dough for at least an hour.

After the dough has been refrigerated, form about 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons sized dough balls into football shapes and place on a greased (or a foil lined) cookie sheet.

Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes at 375 degrees.

Once the cookies have cooled, outline the shape of a football using the melted chocolate. If you do not have piping materials, you can use a Ziploc bag by cutting the corner of the bag. Fill in the outline with more of the melted chocolate.

Finally, once the chocolate has hardened, use the white frosting to make the laces.

Enjoy!
