Cute up your Super Bowl celebration with chocolate-covered almonds dressed up to look like pigskins. We love these piled high in a pretty bowl or perched atop a batch of cupcakes. 

Ingredients:
Chocolate covered almonds (we like Tuxedo brand, but you can use anything--even a different nut or chocolate-covered something, just make sure it's an oblong shape)
White decorating gel icing
Optional: latex gloves to help ya handle the nuts without smudging the chocolate
 
Directions:
All you're gonna do is use the white icing to recreate the laces you would see on a football. Draw one long, lateral line, then cross it with four shorter lines. Set your almonds on a sheet of wax paper and let the icing dry, then eat 'em up!

Thanks Lauren!
What type of chocolate would I use since the recipe says it should be an oblong shape?
Two things:
1. I've posted a few comments from my phone on various posts, and they never show up. Can you please tell me why this is happening?
2. These chocolate footballs are a great idea, and I really want to make them, but I'm allergic to nuts. Is there something else I could use instead of the chocolate covered almonds?
Thanks!

Hey girl, if its through your phone it could be your connection. Posting through a mobile device sometimes is a lot more complicated then posting directly online on a computer. - you could make them plain chocolate!

 

Hey girl, hmmm you could possibly try chocolate covered raisins or cranberries. Sometimes they're in all weird shapes, but I think with the football lines that you add it will be easy to see what it is.

Here me out, guys.
Once upon a time, I had a club called The Alphas United. Then, the evil witches called School, Drama, and Distraction came upon me and made me forget about it. Now, I have broken the spell with the help of Remembrance and will try to restart the club before School, Drama, and Distraction come back. Report all Alphas. We have a job to do. Join my club for amazing tips and an in on an exclusive clique.
The End...
or is it?

I made them and they are actually super easy to make, but you only really need 3 stripes. But, they turned out really cute!

I really need help fast Foot
I'm a college student and I think my professor has a crush on me. He's always staring at me and close to me and every time he or someone in the class makes a perverted joke, he blushes and looks at me and he teases me and tries to make me laugh. He also looks at my boobs and one time he was so close that I bumped into him and he said sorry and touched my back. Do you think he likes me? We have a lot in common and a really strong connection.

What can I get/make my BF for Valentines Day? We haven't been together long so we really don't have any pictures. Thanks!

 

Hey girl, definitely make him a card! I usually like to think it's s holiday for girls mostly, for their guys to give them gifts and show love. heehee. It is very nice for the girl to get the guy a small gift though. Maybe you could buy two tickets to the movies and give them to him saying its a movie of his choice whenever he wants to go?
