For years, the dining cognoscenti have eaten pretty much the same game-time snacks. Brief refresher course - chips and salsa or guacamole, buffalo wings...
But today, searching for material today and something other than the tons of avocados that will generously give their lives to be guacamole - guess what? There are now themed desserts for Super Bowl Sunday!
Did you ever consider dessert with a major football game? I sure as hell didn't. Super Bowl (to me) is red go-cups (big ones) filled with keg beer; various dips, etc. But not dessert. It seems vaguely … wrong... don't you think, too?
Here are two that I came across.
PEANUT BUTTER PRETZEL DIP
Cream together peanut butter (commercial not "healthy" - it separates) with cream cheese, spread out in a pie pan, cover the top with mini-chocolate chips and use pretzels to dip in.
MINI OREO TRUFFLES
1 package Double Stuffed Oreos, ground into dust; blend in 4 oz. cream cheese and make football-shaped balls. Dip the balls in two cups melted sweet chocolate,then fill a decorating tube with 1 cup white chocolate and make the football strings. If that seems a little frou-frou for a football game, just dip half of it in the white chocolate.
Or just give everyone a spoon and pass around a can of cake frosting. That's a football dessert, by damn!
