Cookies for the Super Bowl

Because the Steelers are headed to their 3rd Super Bowl in six years…
Because I bleed Black and Gold…
And because I love cookies…
Dessert first. I will be sharing a lot of great Super Bowl party menu items over the next two weeks, but first let’s do cookies. Here are three football-themed cookies that would be perfect to serve at your Super Bowl party:

1. Football Sugar Cookies
A football cookie cutter is used to make these basic football sugar cookies. Decorate them with your team’s colors!
2. Pittsburgh Steelers Logo Cookies
I bought a Steelers cookie mold on eBay a few years ago, which came in handy for these logo cookies. I used royal icing for everything except for ‘Steelers’ which I pressed out of black fondant.
3. Pittsburgh Steelers Jersey Cookies
I used a jersey cookie cutter to make these cookies and customize them with Steelers colors and player names and numbers.
Steelers vs. Packers in two weeks…
HERE WE GO, STEELERS, HERE WE GO!!




I don’t care about Super Bowl, but your cookies are so seductive, oh i can’t resist, you’re really a talent
Super Bowl, Baby!!!!!! Woo Hoo! Go Steelers! Black and yellow all the way! These cookies are awesome! I just might have to make these for our Super Bowl Party!!!
I’m not into football at all, but this cookies are amazing :)
Whoa!! Great job on these! I wish I was coming to your Superbowl party :)
Even though I’m a RAVENS fan, i love love love these gorgeous cookies. The detail work is exquisite!
i lovee the steelers, AND COOKIES! i might have a superbowl party this year and the cookies look terrific! they make me hungry just looking at them! im definitely going to try and make these this year with my mom. im soo pumped that the steelers are going for number 7(:!
well i do love your site and i kno your a steelers fan but GO PACKERS!!
and i have to ask what you use to make your royal icing brown for the footballs?
If these cookies weren’t so darn cute, I’d be mad. Patriots got robbed!!!!
I wanted to make Chicago Bears cookies, but I guess I’ll have to wait till next year, which is the chant of Chicago sport fans, except for Blackhawks fans;( I’ll be making the football cookies
I thought of you yesterday when the Steelers won! I know how you feel, I’m a huge Saints fan and last season was surreal to say the least. Congrats for your team! The cookies are terrific!
So beautiful these cookies. They look tasty, delicious, yummyyyy!!!
Congrats to the Steelers! You must be soooo stoked!
We’re not huge football fans, but if we were, this is our team of choice this year! I’m actually an Indiana girl, so I love me my Colts! :) But since the hubster hails from PA, the Steelers are always my second choice!
Love the cookies! Very well done, and the footballs are probably my favorite! So cute!
I will try this…but mine will be green and gold, sporting names such as RODGERS, MATTHEWS, WILLIAMS, DRIVER, HAWK, RAJI, WOODSON, and JENNINGS. Thanks for the idea, and good luck to your team. =) Go Pack!
Great cookies! Good luck to your team!
Haha, those are awesome! Will definitely have to make some of those for my dad, but before the Super Bowl, because he got tickets and is going. So excited haha.
All the recipes you posted are absolutely adorable, and I love your blog!
Congratulations on your team, my team the Patriots sadly were out a little earlier.
You are so talented, I wouldn’t begin to be able to make and decorate these cookies, but I just love the pictures. Keep up the good work!!!
Love your sit, but c’mon, how ’bout my Packers, eh?
I resisting the urge to hurl Steelers insults… but you DID beat the Jets, and that was appreciated. The Pats are our team… you can understand our pain :) But you have to respect those who bleed the colors (blue, red and silver; black and gold respectively…) so I say a whole-hearted congratulations, and I love your dessert ideas! I would just change the color scheme… for next year :)
Nothing against you (I still LOVE your baking!) but I hate the Steelers :) I think it stems from my hatred of Pitt college basketball. But the cookies look great ;)
I was so hoping the Bears would make it to the Super Bowl, I was dying to make some Chicago Bears cookies. Guess it will just be footballs this year! Your cookies are adorable, love them!
All the cookies are so cute! Love it.
Those cookie are super cute! Its gonna be a great super bowl!
Go Steelers! Penny, city chicken is such a good idea!
congratulations to the steelers!
how exciting for you!! your cookies look fabulous!
all the best!!
I must tell you (because I love your post) ((and because I’m not ashamed of making a fool of myself!)), my twin sister is SO into the Steelers (((and I’m a gay boy into baking… ya think something went wrong?!?))) and every time she talks about the Steelers I have to roll my eyes. I am so NOT into football, so much so that when I first began reading your post and saw “Pittsburgh Steelers Jersey Cookies” I thought to myself – “How silly! Pittsburgh is in PA, not NJ!”
Anyway, now that I got that off my chest, just wanted you to know how great your post is… you are very creative and inspiring.
I love your cookies! They are fantastic! I am so excited we’re going to the Super Bowl again!
I couldn’t wait to post to you with the STEELERS going to the SUPER BOWL! The cookies look great and the footballs look more my ability at best. I had thought about cookie dough thru a ricer somehow to make Troy’s hair…naaa.
(I am going to mention here in time to research if needed that City Chicken will be on my menu.I was trying to think of foods that say Pittsburgh area to me.That is a regional food and perfect for a party. Meat on a stick! My family always uses veal and pork.)
Ha! This made me laugh. I love it! Being over the other side of the pond I’ll have no cause for making Superbowl cookies but I love your devotion!
Adorable! Congrats to your team!
