Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Thread the bacon slices onto 12-inch wooden skewers that have been soaked in water. Bake until cooked but not too crisp, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely.
- While the bacon is cooling, set a glass bowl over a pot of simmering water so that the bottom of the bowl is not touching the water. Add the white chocolate to the bowl and heat until melted.
- Line another baking sheet with parchment. Dip the bacon strips in the white chocolate so they are mostly covered. Place on the parchment. Sprinkle the bacon with the chopped pistachios and use a rasp grater to grate the milk chocolate on top. Let the chocolate harden at room temperature before serving.

Steps:
- 1. Cut the bacon strips in half. Fry the bacon as flat as you can, and as crisp as you can. Do not burn!!! Remove from skillet to paper towel lined plate to remove as much fat as possible.
- 2. When you are done making your other candies using chocolate almond bark, dip the cooled bacon into the almond bark. I dip the bacon two ways: 1. Dip the entire strip of bacon and coat on both sides. Place on wax paper lined baking sheet. Refrigerate or freeze of 5-10 minutes or until chocolate bark hardens. 2. Dip 1/2 to 3/4 of a strip of bacon. Place on wax paper lined baking sheet, and refrigerate or freeze for 5-10 minutes to harden chocolate bark.
- 3. *** If you don't want the flat strips of bacon, cut each strip into 3 or 4 pieces. Fry until crisp, drain on paper towels. Cool completely. Dip completely in chocolate bark or dark chocolate chips. Let set before serving or storing in airtight container.
- 4. *** I also put a thin layer of peanut butter on bacon. Freeze for 10 minutes, then dip in the chocolate. *** Spread a little caramel topping on bacon, sprinkle with coarsely chopped pecans. Freeze for 15 minutes. Dip in chocolate. Sprinkle additional nuts on the chocolate layer and set on wax paper.
- 5. *** After all the bacon pieces are coated the way you choose to do them, let them harden, then drizzle with white chocolate or almond bark to decorate.

Steps:
- Heat large skillet on high; add bacon strips.
- Turn bacon strips over as needed with tongs.
- Cook back until it's reduced to about ¼ of its original size and appears to be crispy. (Personally I believe that the bacon should be crispy; however if you prefer your chocolate covered bacon chewy opposed to crunchy then reduce cooking time by removing your bacon earlier).
- Drain bacon on papertowels to remove grease.
- While the bacon is cooling fill the double boiler or medium sauce pan with water and bring to a medium heat.
- Place double boiler top pan in double boiler bottom pan or put the small sauce pan in the medium sauce pan.
- Slowly add chocolate morsels into top pan and stir while morsels melt. Do this until all morels have been added. (Be sure to keep stirring to prevent the chocolate from burning.).
- Using your fingers or tongs carefully dip the bacon strips into the chocolate, if necessary use a spoon to spoon the melted chocolate over the bacon evenly coating it.
- Once coated lay strips on cooling rack (with something underneath to catch the drips) or waxed paper lined cookie sheet. Cool in refrigerator for 15 minutes to set chocolate.
