Nothing says love like chocolate covered bacon!!! Here is the easy-peasy recipe that was featured in Glitter, Glue and Gluttony Valentine’s Day Part 2.

What you will need:

1 lb of thick cut bacon (cooked crispy - I bake mine in the oven at 400 degrees for 20 minutes)

16 oz bag of chocolate chips (milk, semi-sweet, or dark)

chopped nuts (I used pecans but any nut works well)

bacon bits (I used bagged bacon bits but you can make your own)

Cookie sheet

Wax paper

Double boiler

Line a cookie sheet with wax paper. Cut crispy bacon into bite-sized pieces and place on cookie sheet.

Melt chocolate chips in a double boiler.

Dip bacon into chocolate.

Top with a mixture of chopped nuts and bacon bits.

Put on cookie sheet and put in the refrigerator to set up for approximately 10 - 15 minutes.

Share with your Valentine!!! Enjoy!
