These were even better than I thought they would be! I made them for our weekly women's Bible study group, and even the ones who didn't think that chocolate, peanut butter, and bacon went together were surprised by how yummy they were. My only suggestion...make extra bacon.

I was excited to make these, but didn't like them as much as I expected to. It was obvious there was bacon in them (chewy), but I couldn't taste it all that much. The peanut butter seemed to overpower it and they were very rich -- almost too much for me, and that is rare. I thought the combination of flavors would be great (P.B. and bacon are quite good together), but this recipe isn't a keeper for me.
