Buy me some peanuts and cracker jacks…oh, oops, wrong sport? These little bites are held together with marshmallows, peanuts, pretzels, and cracker jacks, and they're always in season. Plus, they take 30 minutes tops to make, so you can throw them together during the pregame coverage.

The only thing better than a margarita? A marg in dessert form. These tequila-infused truffles are boozy treats your guests will love to eat before, during, and after the game. I'm not telling you to wash 'em down with shots of tequila, but I'm also not not saying that...

Chex cereal, chocolate chips, peanut butter, and powdered sugar. That’s it. That’s the recipe. Make extra, because the bowl may not make it past the first quarter.

Packed with M&Ms, peanut butter, oats, and chocolate chips, this dessert dip should abso-freaking-lutely be in your lineup. Serve it with sliced apples, pretzels, or graham crackers, or just say f*ck it and eat it straight with a spoon.

I mean, you could make a cake. You could even make a football cake. Or, you could make these bite-sized balls of cake on a stick dipped in frosting and covered in colorful sprinkles. You choose, but as long as there’s cake in some form, then you're doing great.

The name says it all here, and let’s face it, the game would be pretty boring without a touchdown or two. These brownies are stuffed with caramel, pretzels, pecans, and of course, chocolate, but they’re not complicated to make (like, actually). A guaranteed win.

The key to these cupcakes is the chocolate icing piped in the shape of a football, duh. While this chocolate-on-chocolate recipe is delicious, you can use any cupcake recipe you want to make these festive desserts. Extra credit if you get green cupcake wrappers to replicate the field.

Recipe from Fresh April Flours
