This year's Super Bowl is sure to have some exciting action but if you ask us, it's dessert that really gets the crowd riled up. Sure, there's an endless array of Super Bowl dips and chicken wings to make the party feel like a winning success. But before the fourth quarter starts, be sure to serve up one of these Super Bowl desserts!
Here, you'll find everything you need for a sweet ending to your menu of Super Bowl recipes. Think: football-shaped cookies and cakes, sweet and salty popcorn, and plenty of chocolate brownie recipes. If you're feeding a big crew like the Drummonds, try a sheet cake recipe that's sure to please a crowd. Otherwise, opt for a party dip that's sweet instead of savory like the chocolate chip cookie dough dip or the peanut butter dip in the shape of a football.
Many of these desserts are bite-sized treats so you can snack on them without missing a single Super Bowl commercial. You can also save time by making some easy no-bake desserts like the peanut butter bars or Oreo cheesecake bites that you can whip up a few days ahead. There are even cute chocolate-dipped strawberries! No matter what you make though, don't forget to serve your Super Bowl desserts alongside a fun football-shaped snack board, and you'll most certainly be named MVP no matter who wins in the end!
