Maple-Bacon Lollipops

We feel pretty safe in saying that we're the first people to ever make a bacon-based lollipop. And not just any bacon, either- we use sustainable, organic, cured bacon- we kinda felt that it went well with the organic Vermont maple syrup we were using as a base, you know?

While we admit that it's pretty far from the norm (it's definitely not kosher!), once you make that initial leap of faith and try it out, we're positive that you'll love it. The salty chunks of bacon make a delicious and unique counterpoint to the subtle sweetness of the maple, and oh, yeah- you'll be eating an oh-my-god bacon lollipop!

A perfect gift for the sweet-toothed pork aficianado in your life.


COUGHbirthdayCOUGH!

I was going to scoff at this, but then I remembered that I just ordered This the other day because curiosity got the better of me.

I'll let you know how it is to drink bacon.

Here's the update.  I finally tried the maple bacon coffee.

It didn't taste like bacon.  Not really...

You got a vague feeling like you might have eaten bacon a while ago.. a bacon "feeling", but no actual bacon taste.  It mostly just tasted like generic maple/sweet flavoured coffee.

I was ever so slightly disappointed.

Ladies and gentlemen, i give you a recipe for BACON WALNUT FUDGE!


Bacon Walnut Fudge?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes, you read that right. A friend of mine developed the recipe, and she swears it's good. I haven't tasted it though, so caveat fudge-tor!

U.S. /Metric Ingredient
14 oz/415 mL sweetened condensed milk
16 oz /450 g semi-sweet baking chocolate squares, divided
2 tsp /10 mL vanilla extract, divided
4 tsp /20 mL imitation maple flavoring, divided
1/2 c /60 g walnuts, chopped
8 slices of bacon (rashers), applewood-smoked and cider-cured, cooked and cut into ~.5"/1cm strips
2 Tbsp /30 mL maple syrup
to taste coarse kosher salt

Chef's Notes
This fudge is layered. The bottom layer is walnutty goodness, then theres a delicious layer of bacon, followed by rich chocolate with a hint of maple, all topped with a dusting of salt. Feel free to replace imitation maple flavoring with maple extract. I was unable to find maple extract at the supermarket. Apparently the supermarket people think we only want maple things at Christmastime? Silly them. I bet if I actually lived in Canada, Id be able to find maple extract year-round!

I like to cut my bacon into bits with scissorsI keep a pair in the kitchen just for that.

Store leftover fudge uncovered. If you cover it, the salt melts from the condensation and runs everywhere. It still tastes good, but its better as crystals on top.

Directions
Line an 8-inch square pan with foil.

Divide the condensed milk evenly into two microwave-safe bowls. Add 8 oz of chocolate, broken up, into each bowl.

On full power, microwave one bowl of the chocolate and milk mixture for 45 seconds, then stir. Microwave again for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between each heating, until the chocolate is nearly melted. Stir until it finishes melting, then add 1 tsp vanilla, 2 tsp maple flavoring, and the walnuts. Pour into pan.

Gently arrange the bacon over the first layer of fudge.

Add the maple syrup to the second bowl of milk and chocolate, then heat this mixture in the same way you did the first bowl, adding remaining vanilla and maple flavoring when the chocolate has melted. Pour into the pan, making sure all the bacon is covered.

Sprinkle a scant pinch of kosher salt over the top of the fudge.

Refrigerate for about 2 hours, or until fudge is completely set.

With a sharp knife, slice fudge into 1-inch squares and devour.

This reminds me of a drift in "If I had a $1m", a song by the Bare Naked Ladies where they talk about pre-wrapped sausages being available but not pre-wrapped bacon.  Looks like they were wrong.
Don't think I could eat it though.  But then I have in my time eaten pot noodles...

If you can eat a pot noodle, you can eat anything. I actually quite fancy one now you've mantioned it. I wonder if there's a bacon flavoured one!

They won an award when they first came out - as a survival food - then I think the award was taken away when people found out how bad for you they are!
