Bakin’ with Bacon in Baconia

I May Be King, But I’m Also Head Baker!

Seems our fabulous Chef here in Baconia is not fond of baking – he loves all his other specialties (and so do we!) but baking is not his fave SOOOOOOO, I told him that I would happily take over baking chores even though I am the KING!

First I thought I’d make a Chocolate Bacon Bomb Pie – just the name sounds like something we should all try at least once right?   Bacon and chocolate are a good combo!

Chocolate Bacon Bomb Pie

• 3 cups pretzel twists (you can use whatever pretzels you have, I used twists)
• 2/3 cup sugar, divided
• 1 stick of butter, divided
• 1 package Fudge Stripes Dark Chocolate Cookies from Keebler (11.5 oz)
• 12 oz package of bacon, cooked and diced (1/4 cup reserved)
• 3 eggs
• 1 TBSP vinegar
• 1 TBSP flour
• 1/4 cup chocolate chips
• 1 can sweetened condensed milk

1. Preheat your oven to 350.
2. Crush your pretzels and in a large bowl combine them and 1/3 cup melted butter and 1/3 cup sugar.  Mix to combine.
3. Press the pretzel mixture into a pie plate and bake for five minutes.
4. In the same large bowl (no need to clean it out) crush your chocolate cookies.  Now add the remainder of the butter (melted), the bacon (remember to save 1/4 a cup), eggs, the remainder of the sugar, vinegar, and flour and mix well.
5. Gently pour the mixture into your pie crust.
6. Top with the remaining bacon and the chocolate chips.
7. Pour the sweetened condensed milk over it and bake for 35 minutes or until the edges of the pie begin to turn golden brown.

Alright – so that’s kind of a complicated recipe but doesn’t it sound NOMMY?????

Every Saturday I will share a recipe with you Baconians………………how’s that for a SHARING and CARING King?

Thanks boss…..that’s a load off my mind!

I think we deserve a few laughs now don’t you?    Some of our favorite giggles!!
