Proceed to the Next Level of Gluttony
Ingredients:
- 4 slices of thick-cut, smoked bacon (because, let's be real, it's not like you need a diet)
- 1 cup of heavy cream (because, why not)
- 2 tbsp of unsalted butter (for that golden brown magic)
- 1 tsp of sea salt (to represent the tears of the weak)
- 1/4 cup of granulated sugar (because, let's face it, this is still dessert, kinda)
- 1 cup of caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade, we won't judge)
Instructions:
- Preheat your kitchen to 400°F (because, why not? You're already this far in, might as well go all in)
- Cook the bacon until it's crispy. Like, really crispy. You know, for the sake of science.
- Whip the heavy cream until it forms a stiff peak. Or, you know, just until it's stiff. We're not scientists.
- Melt the unsalted butter. Because, why not? It's still butter.
- Combine the sea salt, sugar, and a pinch of your tears (just kidding, or are we?). Stir until the sugar dissolves.
- Drizzle the caramel sauce over the cooked bacon. Because, this is the part where you get to be fancy.
- Stir the mixture until it forms a sauce that's just as smooth as your ego after devouring this dish.
Results:
A sauce so divine, it'll make the angels weep with envy. A dish so decadent, it'll make the devil himself question his life choices. This, friends, is the holy trinity of flavor: bacon, caramel, and a pinch of your soul.
