Bacon mail

My love of all things bacon is nothing new (mmmmm), nor is my willingness to try it in weird ways (helllooooo bacon brownies!), so it should come as no surprise that I've been wanting to try Vosges Mo's Bacon Bar for a while. I was resigned to never sampling this potentially divine combination as, sadly, Vosges chocolate isn't sold in Australia...at least until this showed up in the mail, courtesy of my sweet friend Sandra:

The verdict? Surprisingly (or maybe not so surprisingly) tasty! It's a lot more bacon-y than the brownies I made - the initial flavor is all chocolate, but then BAM! Bacon! Ben wasn't so crazy about it, but I'm considerably more fond of salty/sweet combinations (like chocolate covered pretzels) than he is.

Thank you soooo much, Sandra! I can die happy - my life is now complete.

  1. I must try this! I took and made your bacon brownie recipe, adding my own twists of course, and was so delighted I made several (I won't confess how many) more batches.
