Prep Time: 30 min Total Time: 50 min Servings: 24

Ingredients

  • 6 Tbsp. ready-to-spread white frosting, divided

  • ½ tsp. green gel food color

  • 24 OREO Cookies, divided

  • 12 football-shaped sprinkles (about 1 Tbsp.)

  • 24 number-shaped sprinkles (about 1/4 tsp.)

  • 2 oz. (1/2 of 4-oz. pkg.) semi-sweet baking chocolate

Directions

  1. Spoon 2 Tbsp. frosting into pastry bag fitted with small round writing tip; reserve for later use.

  2. Add green food color to remaining frosting in small microwaveable bowl; mix well. Microwave on HIGH 5 sec. or just until frosting is softened (Do not microwave frosting until melted.) Stir until frosting is of glaze-like consistency. (If necessary, microwave frosting an additional 2 to 3 sec.)

  3. Spread green frosting onto tops of 12 cookies; place in single layer on parchment-covered baking sheet. Refrigerate 10 min. or until frosting is firm.

  4. Use about half of the reserved white frosting to pipe lines onto tops of green-frosted cookies to resemble lines on a football field.

  5. Add 1 football-shaped sprinkle and 2 number sprinkles to top of each green-frosted cookie, gently pressing sprinkles into frosting to secure. Let stand until frosting is firm.

  6. Melt semi-sweet chocolate as directed on package; spread evenly onto tops of remaining cookies. Place in single layer on second parchment-covered baking sheet. Refrigerate 10 min. or until chocolate is firm.

  7. Pipe remaining reserved white frosting onto tops of chocolate-covered cookies to resemble footballs as shown in photo. Let stand until frosting is firm.
