WHERE TO BUY

1
In a medium bowl, using handheld electric mixer, beat together cream cheese and peanut butter until blended and smooth. Beat in confectioners’ sugar and vanilla until combined. Stir in SNICKERS® Ice Cream Bars until incorporated.
2
Scoop ice cream mixture evenly into twelve 2-tbsp balls and arrange on parchment paper–lined baking sheet. Freeze for 30 minutes or until firm. Wearing food-safe gloves, shape each ball into an oblong football shape. Freeze for 1 to 2 hours or until completely frozen.
3
Meanwhile, transfer chocolate to a medium heat-safe bowl set over medium saucepan of barely simmering water; stir for 4 to 5 minutes or until melted and smooth. Let cool to room temperature.
4
Using 2 forks, dip ice cream “footballs” into chocolate, letting excess drip back into bowl. Return to parchment paper–lined baking sheet. Freeze for 1 to 2 hours or until completely frozen and set.
5
Pipe icing onto tops of footballs to resemble stiches of a football. Freeze until ready to serve.
Tip
To simplify, divide ice cream mixture among mini muffin cups lined with paper liners. Freeze until firm, remove liners, dip in chocolate and pipe as above to resemble football stitches.
