If you're throwing a tailgate party these [football-shaped cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/big-game-snack-pack) are not only on theme, they also require no prep work. The Pillsbury Football Cutout Sugar Cookies consist of sugar cookie batter that has been pre-cut into the shape of tiny footballs. The batter is also brown and white to mimic the look of the 'pigskin' itself. However, the best part about the new cookies is that there's zero prep work involved. All consumers have to do is pop them in the oven for 10 or so minutes until they're slightly crisp. Each package also contains 24 cookies each, which makes the product perfect for when you know you'll be hosting a hungry crowd.
