Need an easy dessert for a Super Bowl Party

[debster812]

OK, I have been 'elected' to bring a dessert to my DSIL's Super Bowl Party. And of course, our Pats are playing, so I was hoping to do something to tie that in. Anyone have any brilliant ideas? I was thinking of a sheet cake, cut in the shape of a shirt, and decorated to look like a Pats jersey, but...they will also be celebrating a couple of birthdays, so there will be lots of cake. Ideas please!!
