Mmmm, Bacon

Chocolate Dipped Bacon

Here is a simple treat to bring to potlucks and parties. You’ll only want to dip half of the bacon so that it will be easier to eat without getting chocolate all over your fingers!

Time: 12 minutes

• sliced bacon
• 1 bar dark chocolate (85% cacao)
• optional: dash of cayenne powder

Cook the bacon in a skillet until browned but not too crisp. Drain the grease and pat the bacon dry with a paper towel. Allow to cool.

Heat the chocolate in a small pan over low-medium heat. Add the cayenne if using; mix well. Dip both sides of half of the bacon into the chocolate, then place on wax paper. Refrigerate to solidify the chocolate.

Nutritional info: 1 slice will be about 2g carb, 13g fat.
