Chocolate Covered Bacon

Fancy some man candy? How could salty crisp bacon dipped in gooey milk chocolate not draw the men in? Or anyone for that matter.

Ingredients

  • 16 slices applewood smoked bacon, thick cut
  • 12 ounces semisweet or milk chocolate, chopped
  • 4 ounces white chocolate or almond bark, chopped

Instructions

  1. Cook bacon until crisp.Place cooked bacon on paper towels to drain and cool. Cut each bacon strip in half.
  2. Melt your semi-sweet/milk chocolate. Whisk until completely smooth.
  3. Lay the bacon on a fork and dunk the bacon into the semi-sweet chocolate and make sure it is completely coated. Gently tap the fork against the side of the bowl letting the excess drip off and lay on a parchment or waxed paper lined quarter sheet tray. Repeat with all the bacon slices.
  4. Melt the white chocolate/almond bark in the microwave in 30-second intervals until melted. Be careful not to heat it too much or it will seize. Drizzle over the chocolate covered bacon. Put the sheet tray in the refrigerator to set, about 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from the sheet tray to a serving dish and serve.
