Holiday Re-Mix: Maple Bacon Fudge

2015 was definitely the year that I stepped up my "baking game". I look at baking in a similar way as I do interior design. I see a recipe I love, then I put a special little twist on it to make it my own.

I'm a chocolate lover by nature, and there's no better time of year to incorporate chocolate my addiction into Holiday recipes.  This recipe uses NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE semisweet chocolate chips and peanut butter......a marriage made in heaven in my book. Add in maple bacon, and you have a Holiday re-mix of the Century.  Such a clever twist on a classic fudge recipe!

If you like to bake homemade food items for Christmas gifts, these Maple Bacon Fudge squares will fit perfectly into kraft bags or small boxes to add to festive gift baskets.

My daughter always says "everything's just better with bacon". Judging from how fast these fudge squares disappeared from my kitchen, I'd say she's right!
