We're sharing our love of bacon with this decadent cracker candy recipe that's topped with...you guessed it, bacon. Our Bacon Candy Crack-Up starts with saltine crackers that are topped with a homemade caramel sauce and finished with a layer of dark chocolate and crumbled bacon. Just a warning: this candy is really addictive!

What You'll Need

  • 35 saltine crackers (about 1 sleeve from a 16-ounce box)
  • 2 sticks (1 cup) butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 cups (12-ounce package) semisweet chocolate chips
  • 3/4 pound bacon, cooked crispy and crumbled

What to Do

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a 10- x 15- inch baking sheet with aluminum foil. Lay crackers on baking sheet, packing tightly.
     
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt butter; add sugar and bring to a boil 2 to 3 minutes, or until sugar is completely dissolved, stirring frequently. Immediately pour over crackers.
     
  3. Bake 7 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle chocolate chips over crackers; return to oven 1 minute. Remove and evenly spread chocolate, then sprinkle with bacon.
     
  4. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes, then break into pieces. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

This is the type of candy that you prepare to bring to a function where you will not have to bring any leftovers home. Yummy! Bacon and chocolate!

What a genius mind. I have seen and purchase only once, the bacon chocolate candy bar. I was not impressed. This however, I think I can get into this recipe.

Wow, what a unique recipe! I'm just getting into the bacon/chocolate combo, but this looks good!
