PRALINE BACON

Yes, it says Praline Bacon!  Evidently this is something they serve in New Orleans.  I haven't tried it yet, but it sure SOUNDS wonderful (and fattening).

INGREDIENTS:
1 lb good thick cut bacon
4 tbsp dark corn syrup
3/4 c brown sugar
3/4 c pecans, chopped fine

DIRECTIONS:
1. Place pecans and brown sugar in a food processor and chop till the nuts are chopped fine but not powdered. Set aside.
2. Place the bacon on a foil lined cookie sheet. Cook the bacon in the oven at 425 degrees for 12-15min. Take the bacon out and place on a paper towel to drain.
3. With a pastry brush, brush the dark corn syrup generously on the slices of bacon.
4. Pile the pecan brown sugar mix on top of the bacon and press into the corn syrup.
5. Place the bacon back in the oven for an additional 5-10min. If you like a crisper bacon you can cook longer.
*For added sweetness you can dip the bacon in chocolate.
