Saute until the maple syrup becomes thick, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer immediately to a small bowl and let cool.
• For the batter: With a standing or handheld mixer, blend the butter and sugars until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the egg and beat until well blended, 1 minute. Add the vanilla and beat for 30 seconds more. Stir in the flour and baking soda with a wooden spoon. Add the bacon and chocolate and stir to combine. Scoop heaping teaspoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with sea salt. Bake until golden around the edges, 9 to 10 minutes.

• Start the French toast: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and bake until fully toasted, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the syrup: Combine the maple syrup and cinnamon sticks in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and keep warm while you finish making the French toast.
• Continue with the French toast: Whisk together the milk, eggs, cocoa, sugar, vanilla and salt in a medium bowl until evenly combined and frothy. Pour into a pie plate or other shallow baking dish. Add a few of the toasted baguette slices at a time and allow to soak in the custard, about 1 minute per side.
• While the bread soaks, melt a couple tablespoons of the butter over medium heat in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet. Working in batches, cook the baguette slices until cooked through and slightly golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a serving platter and repeat with the remaining butter and baguette slices.
