I’d whip up some low-sugar bacon truffles. Offhand I’d take something like a high-quality (valrhona, callebaut, etc) 70% cacao chocolate and chop finely. Mix gently with enough warm cream and a bit of butter to get it to about a 35-40% level. Cool slightly then mix in some minced smoked bacon once it’s a bit thickened. Stick in the fridge to cool.

To finish either dip in your original melted 70% chocolate or simply roll in unsweetened cacao powder. Sprinkle with some sea salt on top. If you don’t feel like rolling out the truffle balls you can pour the melted mixture into a parchment-lined cake pan then just remove and cut them up into squares when cold.

I usually just eyeball the ingredients but if you want a receipe with measurements I can dig one up in one of my chocolate books (I have a few) for ya.

Or heck, just skip all the fuss and just dip the bacon in the chocolate!
