Chocolate and bacon can be friends!

Ok, so I am pleased to say that I made my own chocolate covered bacon today, and it was delicious!
I chose Trader Joe's Classic Sliced Dry Rubbed All Natural Uncured Bacon because it already possesses a simple, sweet but not overpowering flavor.
Next, I chose a milk chocolate bar and simply melted in the microwave for 1 1/2 minutes, stirring after each 30 second increment to prevent burning.
Then, I cooked the bacon until it was medium-well ( crispy on the edges and just done every where else).
Lastly,instead of covering the bacon in chocolate as many places do, I chose to drizzle the melted chocolate over the hot bacon. I let it sit for about a minute, and then enjoyed the salty sweet goodness with my fellow bacon-lovin' roommate Samantha! Tip: coffee and banana chocolate chip pancakes make a nice well-rounded meal:)
I am so happy that bacon and chocolate were able to work out their differences.
