BACON APPLES
I cooked apples that I stuffed with brown sugar and cinnamon over a campfire as a dessert for my family when we went camping. In the morning we had bacon with our breakfasts and the kids marinated the bacon in the leftover apples! The bacon was good but we ate the apples after and they where surprisingly good!

Steps:
- Cupcakes: Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 12‒cup muffin pans with cupcake liners and set aside. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl and set aside. Beat the butter and sugar until light and creamy in the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the eggs and the maple extract and mix until fully incorporated. Add the flour mixture and the Half & Half, alternating, in 2 batches. Be sure to mix well after each addition. Add in the chopped, cooked bacon and mix until evenly distributed. Fill the paper-lined muffin pans 3/4 of the way full with batter. Bake the muffins for 20-23 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let them cool before frosting. Frosting: Cream together the cream cheese and the margarine with a hand mixer in a medium bowl until smooth and free of any lumps. Next, mix in the maple extract. Add in the confectioners' sugar and whip until light and fluffy. Refrigerate the frosting until you're ready to serve the cupcakes. Garnish: Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Melt the chocolate chips in the top section of a double boiler. Dip each piece of the bacon into the chocolate, until half of the bacon is covered in chocolate. Place the bacon pieces onto the prepared cookie sheet. Refrigerate until the chocolate is set. When ready to serve the cupcakes, frost them using an icing spatula or a piping bag fitted with a pastry tip. After frosting, place a piece of chocolate-covered bacon on each cupcake and serve.
