Everyone knows the combination of salty and sweet is completely irresistible. It's why you can't stop eating kettle corn, why all the best chocolate chip cookies are topped with sea salt, and why Ruffles krispie treats should probably be illegal.
These chocolate bacon skewers fit right into this list. They've got the perfect combination of salty, sweet, and (surprise!) nutty from a peanut butter drizzle. Sound crazy? It is! Just so crazy it totally works. Not to mention the final result is super pretty--Instagram worthy even!
The trick to getting your drizzles right is getting the melted chocolate and peanut butter to the right consistency. If your chocolate drizzle is a little too thick, try thinning it out with a tablespoon of coconut oil or vegetable oil. For the peanut butter, simply microwave on high for 10 seconds and it will be perfectly pourable.
The secret to these bacon skewers--the one that makes them totally irresistible--is the brown sugar. Sprinkling a little on each slice before baking allows the fats to caramelize and crisp up so that the bacon is almost candied. With all the factors combined, these little treats pack a major punch. Dare you to eat just one.
