Superbowl snacks

This is the only way I get involved in anything football - fun shaped food.

I made these goodies for my hubby to take to his army unit during Superbowl weekend. I found football shaped pretzels and knew I wanted put them in Chex Mix (I love that stuff!!). I also made boiled cookies and shaped and decorated them like footballs. They are made from dark chocolate, oatmeal and peanut butter so they are practically health food :)

Boiled Cookies

4 Tbsp. butter

2 cups sugar

3 Tbsp. cocoa powder (I used Hershey's Special Dark)

1/2 cup milk

Heat in large pot over medium heat until boiling. Boil for 1 minute.

Remove from heat and add:

1 tsp. vanilla

1/2 cup peanut butter

3 cups quick oats

Stir until combined and drop Tablespoon sized cookies onto foil. Cool until firm.

*These are a favorite cookie from my childhood. I turn 8 years old everytime I taste one :)
