The Super Bowl is Sunday … do you have your menu planned? I’m working on mine … simple, nothing fancy. We aren’t having a party, but snacks are a requirement while watching football’s big game … according to my family 😉
Today I’m sharing one last easy peasy football treat! There are several reasons to make these pops … Snickers and marshmallows dipped in chocolate … they’re easy to make … can be made today … stored in an air tight container at room temperature … served on Sunday!
To make 25-30 pops, you will need …
- 25-30 lollipop sticks
- 8 ounce bag of Snickers bites (you will have extra)
- 1 pound of chocolate candy coating (such as CandiQuik)
- 2 ounces of white/vanilla candy coating (such as CandiQuik)
- 1 bag Kraft Stackermallows
- 2-1/2″ cookie/biscuit cutter (I used one with a crinkled edge because I didn’t have a plain edge one)
- Melt candy coating according to package directions. Use a stick to predrill (about half way) into the side of a Snickers (don’t worry if it cracks, it will be covered in chocolate later). Dip the tip of the stick in melted candy and insert into Snickers, let chocolate harden.
- Use the round cutter to cut a Stackermallow into a football shape. (Save the marshmallow scraps to make Rice Krispie Treats or in hot cocoa!)
- Use a little melted chocolate to attach the flat side of the Snickers to the back of the football shaped Stackermallow, let chocolate harden.
- Spoon melted chocolate over the entire pop, tap off excess chocolate. Place pop in a stand/styrofoam or lay (Snicker side down) on wax paper covered tray. Chill for a few minutes.
- Place melted white candy in squeeze bottle or pastry bag and draw lines/laces on the football.
About the name … if Snickers added marshmallows to their candy … believe they would be called Snickmallows … don’t you agree?
These are ready to go for Sunday’s game …
These pops would also be cute addition to a sports themed birthday party 🙂
Thank you to Miss Candiquik for the candy coating 🙂
♦ I share my stuff with these fun parties! ♦
I have never seen the Kraft Stackermallows before. I’m going to have to go on a scavenger hunt for them. Cute idea!

yes, they are tough to find, those stackers. definitely commercials. I live in NJ and I don’t even know who’s playing — and I don’t really care.

I don’t think we’ll be watching the game at all. I usually watch the commercials on the internet the day after the game:) I’m sure your family will enjoy their game day snacks. These are so fun.

What wonderful looking super bowl treats. These football pops would be cool stuck in Styrofoam base decorated like a football field. :} I will also be making some football shaped krispie treats; along with many other goodies to eat. Bring on the game!
Guess I’m the odd ball in the bunch here cause Yes, I actually do watch the super bowl and during commercial breaks is when I head for the ladies room and out to the kitchen to refill my plate. :}
(personal note: Don’t call me while the game is on cause I won’t be answering the phone. )
Enjoy your day and have a wonderful week.
Go Denver!

Hi Colleen, I won’t call you during the game … don’t have your number, LOL 😉 I will join you in the cheering dept. … go Peyton! You sound super organized … I’ll catch parts of the game, probably spend time in the kitchen … preparing and preparing. My hubby actually suggested cooking a rib roast on the Weber, until I informed him that the game time snacks would be very limited if he did the roast … he chose snacks 🙂
