Decadent Chocolate Bacon Cupcakes

Today, I am excited to share a unique dessert recipe that combines two unlikely ingredients: chocolate and bacon. These decadent chocolate bacon cupcakes are perfect for anyone looking to add a savory twist to a classic sweet treat. The rich flavor of chocolate perfectly complements the salty crunch of bacon, making these cupcakes a true indulgence.

Ingredients:

  • 200g dark chocolate
  • 100g bacon
  • 150g butter
  • 150g sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 100g flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Kitchen Tools:

  • mixing bowl
  • whisk
  • cupcake tray
  • oven

To start, preheat the oven to 180°C and line a cupcake tray with paper liners. In a mixing bowl, melt the dark chocolate and butter together until smooth. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy. Slowly pour the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, stirring constantly to combine.

Next, chop the bacon into small pieces and fry in a pan until crispy. Add the bacon to the chocolate batter along with the flour and baking powder. Stir gently until everything is well incorporated.

Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each one about three-quarters full. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let the cupcakes cool completely.

These decadent chocolate bacon cupcakes weigh approximately 1100g in total and make around 12 servings. Each serving weighs around 90g and contains approximately 300 calories.

One clever tip for these cupcakes is to sprinkle some sea salt on top before serving to enhance the savory-sweet flavor combination.

I encourage you to give these unique chocolate bacon cupcakes a try and get creative with your own variations. Enjoy!
