A Few Tips to Keep in Mind

  • Make sure to use miniature peanut butter cups, as regular sized ones may be too large to wrap in bacon.
  • If you prefer a softer, chewier texture for your bacon, you can cook it for a shorter amount of time. If you prefer a crispier texture, cook it for a longer amount of time.
  • You can experiment with different types of bacon to see which one you like best. Some people prefer thicker cut bacon for this recipe, while others prefer thinner cut bacon.
