Time 1h30m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pound sliced bacon, cut into thirds
1 (14 ounce) package beef cocktail wieners
¾ cup brown sugar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Refrigerate 2/3 of the bacon until needed. It is easier to wrap the wieners with cold bacon. Wrap each cocktail wiener with a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick. Place on a large baking sheet. Sprinkle brown sugar generously over all.
  • Bake for 40 minutes in the preheated oven, until the sugar is bubbly. To serve, place the wieners in a slow cooker and keep on the low setting.

Categories     appetizer

Time 3h40m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

10 slices bacon
One 12-ounce can cola
Nonstick cooking spray, for the cooling rack
3/4 cup unpacked light brown sugar
2 teaspoons sweet paprika
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Put the bacon in a container so it lays flat. Pour over the cola to cover. Refrigerate and let soak 2 to 3 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, place a cooling rack over top and spray with cooking spray.
  • Drain the bacon from the cola, place on the cooling rack and pat dry. Combine the brown sugar, paprika and black pepper in a bowl and toss to combine and loosen up the brown sugar. Sprinkle the brown sugar mixture on both sides of the bacon, pressing and patting so it adheres. Place the slices on the cooling rack; they can be close to one another but shouldn't touch.
  • Bake until the bacon is deeply caramelized but still pliable (it will crisp as it cools), about 20 minutes. Flip the bacon occasionally as it cools to crisp on both sides. Let cool completely.

SUNNY'S CANDY BAR AND BACON ROLLS



Sunny's Candy Bar and Bacon Rolls image

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Categories     dessert

Time 50m

Yield 8 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 7

All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 tube croissant dough (makes 8 individual croissants)
1 cup chopped chocolate candy bars (I like Snickers and/or Butterfinger here)
4 slices crisp-cooked bacon, chopped
1 tablespoon sour cream
Turbinado sugar, for sprinkling
Flake salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • For the rolls: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • On a lightly floured flat surface, roll out the dough and separate it into 4 rectangular parts, leaving 2 triangles attached for each of the 4 sections. Each section should appear to be a rectangle with a perforated dividing line through its center diagonally. Carefully pinch together the 2 triangles along this line to close the gaps and seal it to make it 1 piece. Cut each piece in half to make 2 squares. Repeat for each and place on a nonstick baking sheet with sides. There should be 8 squares to fill.
  • Combine the candy bars and bacon in a medium bowl. Add 1 heaping tablespoon of the candy mixture in a row along the length of the prepared dough in the center, leaving enough room to pull the uncovered dough on the edges up and over the pile of filling.
  • For the topping: In a small bowl, mix the sour cream and just enough water to make it loose like glue, yes glue. Brush this over the top of each roll and sprinkle with sugar and a pinch of flake salt.
  • Bake until golden on top, 16 to 20 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.
