Chocolate Football Spoons are perfect for Super Bowl Sunday! They're super easy to make and make a playful addition to any game day table. Plus you can add lots of different flavors or make a boozy version for adult get togethers. The dark chocolate spoons are boozy with a heavy hint of orange. (Update: I've kept them simple this time around. There are lots of different flavors you can choose from if you'd like to fancy them up a little!) They make a quick, easy, and impressive (got to love when impressive is quick and easy!) treat to serve at your Super Bowl party.
Ingredients
The Chocolate Spoons
½ cup shaved dark chocolate
1 teaspoon butter, or vegan butter
Optional: 1 tablespoon of one of the add-ons
The Icing
¼ cup icing sugar
1 teaspoon water
Optional Add-InsMint Chocolate – Creme de menthe
Coconut Chocolate – Malibu
Coffee Chocolate – Espresso vodka
Boozy Chocolate – Brandy
Almond Chocolate – Amaretto
Bacon Chocolate – Add a little piece of bacon to the bottom of the spoon

Method
For the Chocolate* Melt chocolate, butter, and, if using, one of the optional add-ins in a small saucepan over low heat.
For the Icing* In a small bowl, whisk the icing sugar and water. Add the icing to a pastry bag fitted with a tiny tip. You can also use a resealable plastic bag and cut the tip off of one of the corners.
To Assemble* Lay two wooden spoons on a baking tray. (This is to level the spoons.)
* Using a teaspoon, pour some chocolate into a spoon then gently tap the spoon on your counter to level the chocolate.
* Place the spoon on the baking tray, resting the handle on the wooden spoon. Repeat with the remaining spoons. Set aside till chocolate is firm.
* Draw on the stitching using the icing so the spoons resemble a football. Let icing harden before serving.
