Cute little Football Field Cocoa Rice Krispie Treats, perfect for Superbowl Game Day!
I made cute little chocolate footballs in a plastic candy mold I got online, to put on top of these super easy candy coated rice krispies treats squares to make them look just like a little football field.
Some green melted candy coating just gets poured over the cereal treat, then once it's set, add some white chocolate field lines and top it off with little chocolate footballs.
Cut them into little squares and serve on game day, for a perfectly festive treat! You can even customize them to match your team!
