Awesome Tailgating Dessert Recipes

Aug.posted by Paula 26 Comments

Today I’m sharing Awesome Tailgating Dessert Recipes!

I’m getting super excited! Our first game is just one week away! It’s an away game so I won’t be making any of these fabulous desserts, but they’ll be plenty of time for that later! All I have to do for this game is look pretty and cheer, not such an easy task when you’re surrounded by 22-year-olds… the pretty part, not the cheering part.

These game day desserts will score a touchdown at any football party!

80 Awesome Tailgating Recipes Desserts is a collection of hand-held, easy-to-make, delicious dessert recipes for your game day & parties.

FOOTBALL TIME!

Do you watch football or tailgate? In the South, football is like going to church on Sunday, it’s just something you do. On Saturdays, chances are you’ll find most alumni on campus or in front of the TV cheering for their favorite team!!

Whether you tailgate on campus or in front of the TV at home, great food is a must. I commissioned some of the top bloggers on the web to share their best tailgating dessert recipe. You will find that collection below as well as these girls’ awesome sites. All the recipes are:

  1. Easy to make
  2. Can sit at room temp
  3. And, most important, doesn’t require a utensil to eat! (Because, like, how would hold your drink?)

Don’t miss any of my tailgating series, you can find them below:
