Today’s Bacon Month post is sponsored by Torani and their amazing syrups! All recipes and opinions are my own, so enjoy!
You will rarely see a treat as easy to make as these Bourbon Bacon Chocolate Balls. And after you try them, you won’t care to try to find anything else, anyway!
Holla!
These bite-sized pieces of heaven have all the good stuff to knock out those cravings. Deeply satisfying, my friends.
I feel like all the flavors really complement each other, so nothing is overwhelming, but you still get a taste of everything. I’m a huge fan of the flavor profile provided by Torani’s Bourbon Caramel Syrup; I mean, just a whiff had me giggling with pleasure because I knew it would be just delicious!
This syrup may be going in my hot toddy this winter too, because zomg, why not? AND. And I could be enjoying these bourbon bacon chocolate balls WHILE sipping on said hot toddy.
My brain just exploded.

does this have to be refrigerated after it is made?
