Chocolate-covered bacon
I've been meaning to make chocolate-covered bacon for some time using the recipe mentioned on Primal Toad. Today I did it. Here's my variation.
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb. of thick-cut bacon. Don't use the skinny crap they sell in dairy case. Get it from the butcher.
- 3.5 oz of good quality chocolate, chopped
- 1 tbsp of butter
Method
- In a small frying pan melt the butter over low heat.
- Add the chocolate, stirring to smooth it out.
- Dip the bacon in the chocolate. Transfer it to a wire cooling rack. Put it in the fridge for a couple of hours to firm up.
This turned out pretty good, although it probably won't become part of my regular diet.
