Bacon + Fudge?

Line a cookie sheet with foil.
Lay out all your bacon strips.
Sprinkle light brown sugar over them. Bake at 400 for 5-8 minutes. The bacon should be mostly cooked at that point but not completely crispy.
Flip your strips at this point, dredging them on the liquid forming in the pan.
Then add a little bit more sugar and give them another 5 minutes in the oven.
Remove immediately to a cooling rack.
Once cooled, the candied bacon will be rock solid and crumbly. Break it up to your desired size and mix into the fudge and/or use as a topping.

I hope this helps. My brownies were a big hit.

Hehe, kinda sounds like the pig candy recipe!!! I would eat any sort of dessert with bacon on it. Cake, cupcakes, donuts, fudge, cookies, ice cream, whatever, don't matter just put bacon on it!

Wow, what a surprise running into this thread! I just made a batch of this for our staff Christmas party that is this Friday.

Crisp-fried three strips of bacon.

Chopped the bacon mostly fine but some pieces are still around 1/8" in size.

Made the standard fudge recipe and stirred in about half of the bacon. I also added about a teaspoon of Jalapeno Bacon Salt. When done I spread it out in the pan to cool and pressed the remaining bacon on the top of it. As I write this it is cooling in the fridge. I cannot eat such sugary things but I hope to get good reports from my pals on Friday. I am also providing two briskets and two sets of burnt ends- one sweet and one hot with HDD and Rooster mixed with Blues Hogg Original.
