Ingredients:
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup honey-roasted peanuts
8 thick bacon slices, cooked and divided
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
Parchment paper
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
Directions:
Process first 3 ingredients and 6 bacon slices in a food processor 20 to 30 minutes or until finely ground. Stir together bacon mixture and peanut butter in a small bowl until smooth. Cover and chill 2 hours.
Shape rounded teaspoonfuls of bacon mixture into 3/4-inch balls. Place on parchment paper-lined baking sheet; chill 1 hour.
Chop remaining 2 bacon slices. Microwave chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl on HIGH 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until melted and smooth, stirring at 30-second intervals. Dip chilled bacon balls into chocolate. Place on parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Immediately sprinkle tops with bacon.
Chill 30 minutes before serving. Store in an airtight container in refrigerator up to 2 weeks.
