Chocolate Rum Cupcakes with Candied Bacon

Ingredients:
1 oz dark chocolate
6 tbsp unsalted butter
⅓ cup Dutch processed cocoa powder
½ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup brown sugar
2 eggs
¼ cup rum
¼ cup milk
2 tsp vanilla extract
¾ cup flour (I used gluten-free)
1 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp baking soda
Pinch of salt

For the Chocolate Icing:
½ cup heavy cream
1 tbsp Dutch processed cocoa powder
2 tbsp granulated sugar
¼ tsp vanilla extract

For the Candied Bacon:
2 strips bacon
2 tbsp brown sugar

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 F
Using a double boiler or microwave, melt the chocolate and butter together
Ad in the sugar and cocoa powder, then mix
Add in the eggs, rum, milk, and vanilla extract, then combine
Add in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, then mix to form a thick batter
Pour the batter into a lined cupcake tin (makes 9 cupcakes) and bake for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean
While that is baking, make the icing by combining the heavy cream, cocoa powder, sugar, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer
For the candied bacon, place the strips of bacon flat on a nonstick pan and sprinkle the brown sugar evenly on top
Cook on medium heat until brown and caramelized, flipping the bacon over, halfway through
To assemble: cupcake, icing, then bacon on top

Enjoy!!
