Prepare brownies according to directions on back of box, or use our healthy brownie recipe (link above under ingredients). When brownies are done baking, allow to cool completely, then carefully remove from pan and flip onto a cutting board.
Use an oval or football-shaped cookie cutter to create your football brownies.
If you don’t have an oval or football shaped cookie cutter, you can also freehand by cutting the brownies out with a knife.
Make sure individual brownies are right-side-up, then use white writing icing, or regular frosting piped through a decorating bag to draw the laces. Free printable copy of this recipe available below.
