INGREDIENTS

  • 8 oz organic cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar

  2. Transfer mixture onto a piece of parchment or wax paper. Shape into a football. Coat it in the cacao nibs, gently pressing to adhere. Freeze for at least 1 hour, until firm.
  3. Use white icing to pipe on football laces and stripes, if going for the game-day look. Optional, but fun.
