Description

These football-shaped brownies are rich, fudgy, and perfect for game day celebrations, made with your favorite brownie mix or homemade recipe and decorated with frosting for a fun sports-themed treat.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 box brownie mix (plus ingredients listed on box: usually eggs, oil, water)
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
  • 1/4 cup chocolate frosting (for outlining)
  • 1/4 cup white frosting or decorating gel (for laces)
  • Cooking spray or parchment paper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven according to brownie mix package directions. Grease or line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare brownie batter as directed on the package. Stir in mini chocolate chips if using.
  3. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake as instructed, usually 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs.
  4. Let brownies cool completely in the pan, then remove and place on a flat surface.
  5. Using a football-shaped cookie cutter (or cut freehand with a knife), cut out as many football shapes as possible.
  6. Use chocolate frosting to outline the footballs and white frosting or decorating gel to pipe the laces on top.
  7. Refrigerate for 10–15 minutes to set the decorations before serving.

Notes

  • You can use homemade brownie batter if preferred — just bake in a sheet pan for even thickness.
  • Save scraps for brownie sundaes or truffles.
  • Decorate with team colors by using colored frosting or sprinkles.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
