Consider this nostalgic delight a nod to Philly-based Tastykake's Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars. (The two-ingredient, fudgy glaze is just a bonus.) "You can use regular-size chocolate chips in both the cake and topping, but I prefer using mini because you get more in each bite and for the topping, they melt down easier," McKenney advises.

Thanks to all those drool-worthy layers of salami, pepperoni and mozz, no one will know you used store-bought pizza dough. Your secret is safe with me, friend. You can reheat the leftovers in the microwave, on the stove or in the oven—if there are any, that is.

A delicious twist on a classic. Did you know that four states—Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania—lay claim to the original whoopie pie?

The perfect handheld dessert (or sweet breakfast), courtesy of the Amish. "I use Granny Smith apples, since they aren’t too sweet, have some tartness and hold up to frying well," writes recipe developer Jocelyn Delk Adams. This also offsets the sticky, sugary glaze.

Fancy up your Super Bowl menu with Italian olives, pepperoncini, fig preserves, prosciutto and all the grated Parmesan.

FYI, no one can resist a warm, cheesy dip (especially when chips are involved). "I used grilled ribeye steak, which is classic for cheesesteak sandwiches," recipe creator Cathy Pollak writes. "The ribeye is juicy, tender and flavorful, which is what you want for this dip." Add mushrooms to the bell peppers and shallots if you like them on your cheesesteaks.

No matter who you're rooting for, guacamole is always invited to the watch party. This spin on the traditional dip is oniony (ooh, scallions), herbaceous (hi, fresh basil) and punchy, thanks to sweet-tart sun-dried tomatoes. Might I suggest finishing it with a drizzle of pesto?
