Other Football food ideas…
ENJOY!!
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter flavored Crisco
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 Tbsp molasses
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 1½ cup flour
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1½ cup quick oats
- 1 Tbsp very hot water
- pinch salt
- 10oz Marshmallow Fluff
- ¾ cup butter flavor Crisco
- 2/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 4 oz white chocolate, melted
For the Cookies:
For the Filling:
For the Topping:
Instructions
- In large bowl, beat Crisco, brown sugar, granulated sugar, molasses, vanilla and eggs. Add flour, salt, baking soda, cocoa and cinnamon. Mix in the oats. Drop by ONE tablespoon onto a parchment lined cookie sheet (shape into an oval). Bake 7-8 minutes in a 350 degree oven, until just starting to brown around the edges. DON’T OVERCOOK! Pinch edges of cookies into a football shape if they have rounded too much.
- After cookies have cooled, combine hot water with salt and mix until salt is dissolved. In large bowl, beat marshmallow fluff with Crisco, powdered sugar and vanilla. Beat on high until fluffy. Add in salt water and mix until well combined. Spread filling on one cookie and press second cookie on top.
- Using melted chocolate, drizzle the top to look like a football. Allow to set about ten minutes. Enjoy!

adorable!!
Very cute & my kind of football food! I’m a sugar girl and I hate all those salty football snacks. This is perfect!
I totally need to make these some day! I love oatmeal cream pies — the quaker oats kind but these seem somewhat healthier since it isn’t processed
YUM! My Mom used to buy Little Debbie Oatmeal Cream Pies and now I know how to make one from scratch. The fact that it looks like a football (I have three boys) is just icing on the cake. Would you come over and share at my new link party? http://www.dwellonjoy.com/2012/01/dwell-on-fridays-two.html
Come on over and check it out!
These are perfect for the super bowl! To cute! Now I just need to throw a party and make them!
Oh, yum! I have never tried a chocolate oatmeal cookie–it sounds like the marriage of two of my most favorite things!
Definitely my kind of super bowl snack:-) Oatmeal cream pies are my favorite little debbie…I love that you made them chocolate and football shaped!!! You are awesome!!!
Who’d a thunk it? Brilliant!!

I wonder if there is a way to convert these to gluten free so I could have them and my toddler son too! We’re allergic to wheat!
They look amazing!!!
These look amazing, and I can’t wait to make them for a Super Bowl Party this weekend. Has anyone tried this recipe with regular butter rather than butter-flavored Crisco? Just wondering if the substitute will alter the way the cookies come out. Thanks!

Hi Kim, butter will most likely make these a little flatter (and spread more). You can try using half butter, half margarine. Let me know if you try it!

Thanks Aimee! I was making them for a party and didn’t want to take any chances, so I just went out and bought butter-flavored Crisco. They turned out perfectly! I made 1 1/2 batches and they were ALL GONE before we left the party. Yay! Thanks so much for this recipe.
