I wonder how it tastes (Mangalitsa)?

I may have to try these
 

Best of both worlds, bacon and cupcakes!

MAPLE BACON CUPCAKES

makes 6


4 1/2 tablespoons of butter, room temperature
1/2 tablespoon of bacon drippings (left in the fridge to become solid)
1 egg
5 tablespoons of brown sugar
4 tablespoons maple syrup
1 1/4 cup of self rising flour
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
tiny tiny pinch of kosher salt
1/4 cup of milk
1/4 cup of minced bacon, cooked and drained

Cook some bacon in a fry pan (about 6 thick strips). Reserve the drippings and place in the fridge to solidify. Mince 1/4 a cup of the bacon. The chef should eat whatever is left to assure that the bacon is tasty. Beat the crud out of the butter and solidified bacon fat 'till light and creamy. Add the brown sugar and maple syrup and beat well until combined. Add the egg and beat until incorporated. Sift the flour, salt, baking soda and powder together. Add some of the flour and mix, then some of the milk, then continue to alternate the dry and wet ingredients, ending with the dry. Mix until just combined. Fold in the bacon. Taste and add more maple syrup, flour, or milk if needed for desired taste. Keep in mind the maple frosting is very sweet, and to add in very small increments for alterations as maple syrup in large amounts can break a cake batter. Scoop into cupcake papers and bake at 350 F for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Be sure to rotate the pan after the first 15 minutes for even baking.

Who were the ad wizards that came up with this one?

Gah, they just keep makin' 'em!

Both the image and the link failed for me. However, I am pretty sure you were linking to the same comic I was planning on linking to (saw it at lunch)

I just had bacon for lunch. Well, technically it was cubes of bacon (lardons). I also had bacon-wrapped green beans last night. I am living in the world of bacon and other pork products.

Mmmmm..... bacon.

You know, as much as I love bacon, we may have to find something new and decadent to make popular.

Or we can stick with bacon. I loves me some bacon.

We loved bacon before bacon was a thing. We will continue loving bacon and inwardly smirk at the trendy bacon poseurs. And in the end, we will continue to have our bacon.

Yes, we are the true bacon lovers.
