Bacon ice cream

I'm way behind on yummy stuff, so this will be brief.

Inspired by
JordanBaker
, I tried this recipe. She goes through the creation of bacon ice cream step-by-step with pictures, so I recommend visiting her site. Plus she's funny as hell.

Note: pay attention to the recommendation "cook bacon in oven because frying on stove = stinky tiny apartment."

It's surprisingly sweet and tastes like praline pecan, because the ice cream base is sugary and the chewy chunky bits are salty like caramel. But then your brain kicks in and says "wait a second, that's bacon in there." It's an unusual and tasty dessert. Test it out on your friends without telling them what it is and see their reaction (but not the vegetarian or kosher ones. That's just cruel.)
