    Ingredients

    • 1 Stick Butter
    • 3 Slices Bacon
    • 1/4 Cup Brown Sugar

    Directions

    1. 1Lay bacon out on a baking sheet and cover each slice with some brown sugar totaling approximately 1/4 cup of brown sugar (a little over a tablespoon on each slice).
    2. 2Bake in preheated oven at 350 until crispy and slightly brown on the edges. Be careful because the sugar will burn quickly!
    3. 3Chop bacon as small as you can and mix with softened butter until uniformly mixed.
    4. 4Shape butter into a stick using plastic wrap and store in the fridge until hardened.
    5. 5Serve on toast, bagels, baked potato, steak, burgers, or corn on the cob. Fry an egg in it, saute some onions with it, use it in a brownie recipe. It's so good you might even want to take a bath in it (Not recommended)

    Hi Anon - The cooking time will really vary. Keep a close eye on it to make sure that the sugar doesn't burn.

    I used jello jigglers mold for shaping the butter. It turned out really cute with the halloween ones.
