Number Of Ingredients 4

12 slices thick-cut bacon
12 wooden skewers
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place a baking rack on top of a large baking sheet.

I've made this recipe several times, and it always turns out great. The only thing I would change is to use a different type of chocolate. I prefer dark chocolate, but milk chocolate would also be good.
