    Best Brownies Ever! Bacon, Bourbon, Pecan Brownies

    Bacon, booze and chocolate....what's not to like? Bacon and chocolate paired together seems to be the rage today, but this was my 1st time trying it and it was amazing!

    1/2 cup pecans
    1/2 pound sliced bacon
    8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
    2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
    1 stick plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
    1 cup granulated sugar
    1/2 packed cup light brown sugar
    3 tablespoons bourbon
    4 large eggs
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
    1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

    instructions

    Preheat the oven to 350°. Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, allowing 2 inches of overhang on 2 opposite sides. Spray the paper with vegetable spray. Spread the pecans in a pie plate and toast for about 8 minutes, until fragrant. Let cool, then coarsely chop the nuts.
    In a skillet, cook the bacon over moderate heat, turning once, until crisp, 6 minutes. Drain on paper towels and let cool; reserve 3 tablespoons of the fat. Finely chop the bacon.
    In a saucepan, combine both chocolates with the butter and stir over very low heat, until melted; scrape into a large bowl. Using a handheld electric mixer, beat in both sugars with the reserved 3 tablespoons of bacon fat. Beat in the bourbon. Add the eggs and salt and beat until smooth. Sift the cocoa and flour into the bowl and beat until blended.
    Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle the bacon and pecans on top. Bake for about 50 minutes, until the brownies are set around the edges but slightly wobbly in the center; a toothpick inserted into the center should have some batter clinging to it. Transfer the pan to a rack and let the brownies cool completely. Lift the brownies out of the pan using the parchment paper. Cut into squares or rectangles and serve.

    I made these last night.

    Ridiculous. Thx, Hut.
    Too bad for you, Tine. I used imitation bacon bits - but recipe still calls for hella dead chicken zygotes.

    despite some of the allegations that have been made against your character, i've always thought you to be somewhat of a reasonable person

    until now..

    using bacon bits here is just criminal
    Hi Lew!!!

    Complete fabrication. Since I’m a known vegetarian (a vegetarian Jew, no less) I didn’t want my use of 100% pork bacon being a reason to send me into the oven along with the brownies.

    Willie & community- I’m deeply apologetic for the thoughtless act of self preservation and misrepresentation. JACK DANIELS, not you.

    Humbly Yours,
    Kilgore

    I don't understand dessert eaters period let alone this recipe. They call beer empty calories. More fun than a dozen doughnuts anyday.
