Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place an oven safe wire cooling rack on top.
  2. Line the bacon on the cooling rack and bake for 12 to 25 minutes, depending on the thickness of the bacon. Flip once about halfway through and cook until deep golden brown and crisp.
  3. While the bacon is cooling, break up the chocolate into a bowl and microwave on 10 second intervals until the chocolate is beginning to melt. Stir to melt the chocolate completely. Do not overheat or it will curdle.
  4. Dab off the leftover grease from the bacon with a paper towel then dip one end into the chocolate. Use a spoon to coat the bacon slice a little more than halfway up on both sides. Tap off the excess chocolate.
  5. Place the coated bacon on a sheet of wax paper or parchment paper. Continue until all of the bacon is coated.
  6. Sprinkle each slice with about 1 teaspoon of the chopped toppings, if using, and transfer the wax paper to the fridge, keeping it flat to let the chocolate set, approximately 1 hour.
  7. Enjoy and keep the bacon stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
