Cocoa Krispie Football Treats
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 60 marshmallows (or 6 cups mini)
- 4 drops almond extract (optional, or use vanilla)
- 9 cups cocoa krispies
- nonstick cooking spray
- 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing fingers)
- 6 ounces white frosting (I used 2 tubes decorator frosting)
- In large pan or dutch oven, melt 3 Tablespoons of the butter over low heat. Add marshmallows & stir until completely melted.
- When marshmallows are melted & smooth, turn off heat & add almond extract. Stir well.
- Remove from burner & add Cocoa Krispies. Stir till combined.
- Spray inside of a large bowl & turn the mixture out into it. Allow to cool for about 10-15 minutes.
- Lightly grease your fingers with the 1 Tablespoon of butter and then pull off about a 1/4 cup of Krispie mixture.
- Shape into a football. An oval shape that is wide & tall in the center, getting smaller & slightly pointy at both ends. Repeat until all the mixture is used up.
- With frosting tube, pipe one long line, lengthwise, down the top of each football. Then pipe a short line at each end & fill in the center with more short lines to form the football's laces.
