Substitute 1/4 cup white decorating icing for the colored icings. Use to draw the laces on the footballs. Add sprinkles or nonpareils in the colors of the two football teams playing in the big game. - Make it Simple
Instead of shaping the cream cheese mixture into football shapes, roll it into 48 (1-inch) balls. Decorate with sprinkles or icings as desired.
