Have you noticed that all of the special events surrounding the Super Bowl have to refer to themselves as "Big Game" parties? How ridiculous. Hey, Super Bowl, just FYI, if people want to celebrate you, let them. It doesn't hurt your brand, moron.
Ahem.
Listen, The Frugal Hostess hates football. She will every once in a while pretend to be happy when FruHubs's favorite team scores, only because she is selfless. But she totally and completely hates every sport ever. Maybe except hockey, since that moves pretty quickly. Whatever. The Super Bowl is something that's always going to be celebrated up in here, so FruHo might as well get on board and enjoy herself.
This year, just a couple of close friends are coming over, so the focus is on maximum caloric intake in the minimum amount of time. The menu is something like: fried, fried, salty, fried, meat, meat, meat, fried, and cheese. Because the people at Hershey's are under the misconception that this blog is read by more than three people, they also sent TFH a bag of miniatures to enjoy during the Big Game.
Have you ever tried to think of a football-themed dessert made out of Hershey's Miniatures? Rest assured, that kind of thinking doesn't come easy. Or at all. So The Frugal Hostess is making s'mores.
Super S'mores.

Ha.
Ingredients
One (or more) bag of Hershey's Miniatures
One bag of delicious marshmallows*
Directions
You are not the Super Bowl. You are not a moron, and you definitely know how to make s'mores. FruHo is doing hers on a cookie sheet and baking them to melt everything together.
And, yes, that's Peanut Butter Graham Crackers. Hell to the yes.

But wait, there's more. You can head over to the
Hershey's website to enter their sweepstakes to win a trip to the Football Hall of Fame with your host, Emmitt Smith. Who's Emmitt Smith? No idea, but he's taking you on a trip so Google him.
The lovely, albeit deluded, folks at Hershey's have also agreed to give five readers bags of Hershey's Miniatures, so you can make your very own s'mores for the next soiree you serve up. Leave a comment about who you want to win the Super Bowl, or the next season of Top Chef, or what your best guess is on this Emmitt Smith cat, and five people will be picked at random to get a sack of candy. Them's good odds, y'all.
