Football Shaped Red Velvet Cakes

I am a big fan of themed tailgates and parties, so I brainstormed for awhile to come up with some 49ers and Ravens themed foods for your Super Bowl parties. I definitely wanted to utilize my new Wilton football molds for the recipes as well. My first attempt working with the molds was a bust (more on that later). But my second attempt turned out a lot better.

Last night I made "red velvet 49ers cakes". I used Duncan Hines Red Velvet Cupcake Mix. The mix came with a yummy cream cheese frosting too. If you have the same molds that I do, make sure that you coat the molds with oil or Pam. If not, I think these would still make great cupcakes as well.
