Bacon in desserts is all in right now. So why not pair it with one of the best desserts ever? Chocolate! Ground pepper on the outside might seem a little outlandish, but it helps cut the sweet and tie everything together. If you want to skip or sub anything for it though, you're free to do so, but I suggest just trying a little bit of it, and you'll see what I mean. It gives it that extra little bite.

The ingredients for the twigs are actually very few. However, it does take a bit of hardware. Here's the list -
Food Items:
Bacon!
Chocolate! (I used semi-sweet chocolate chips. They were good without getting super sweet)
Ground Black Pepper
And a tiny, tiny little bit of butter. (Not in the picture, because I thought of it afterwards, but still necessary)
There are really no measurements for this recipe. Get however much bacon you want to coat, enough chocolate to coat it, and however much pepper you want to give it a bite.
Non-Food Items:
Oven
Knife
Cutting board
Cooking sheet with drip rack
A double boiler (or if you're like me and don't have one, a pan and something to go over the pan... Hey, whatever works, right?)
A spoon to mix chocolate and help coat
A paper towel lined plate for draining bacon
A tray lined with either wax paper, parchment paper or tinfoil, to let the chocolate harden on

Thanks for the interesting instructable, and thanks for the inspiration!!
Just kidding. I swear I didn't do that on purpose.
I wrote first than I saw you had wrote almost the same ..
This thing bacon with chocolate seems really weird...
kiss kiss
But yeah, you'd never expect bacon and chocolate, out of everything in the world, would be a good match. Although I'd probably eat it. Bacon and chocolate; my favorite foods living in harmony at last.
Suggestion... Try using a pair of kitchen shears to cut the bacon into strips. Lots easier than a knife and if you are careful you can do two or three pieces at a time.
