Bacon Brownie Cupcakes

Ingredients

• 2  crossing over quintessential american desserts 
• 4 oz baker's chocolate unsweetened
• 1 ounce chocolate sweetened
• 8 tablespoons butter 
• 0.5 cup sugar 
• 0.3 teaspoon salt 
• 2 large eggs 
• 1 cup flour 
• 2 tablespoons cocoa powder (not Dutch-processed)
• 4 strips bacon 

Equipment

• oven
• whisk
• broiler
• muffin tray

Directions

1. Oven: 350F.
2. Grease a standard muffin pan (we like jumbo but not mini, they'll get to crispy).
3. Fry the bacon, remove and pat dry. The bacon should be crispy but without char- any chunks of fat that are still white should be discarded.
4. Melt the unsweetened chocolate and butter in a double broiler.
5. Cool slightly, then whisk in the sugar and salt.
6. Add the eggs, one at a time.
7. Sift the flour and cocoa together, then combine with the chocolate.
8. Stir in the pieces of bacon and chocolate.
9. Bake ~30 min., making sure to allow brownie cupcakes to cool before removing.
