Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 12 oz Pretzel Rods
  • 1 pound Bacon (NOT thick cut)
  • 2 cups Brown Sugar
  • 3-4 Tbsp Red Chili Powder (or most to taste if you want them real spicy)
  • Dash Cayenne Pepper (Use more if you want hot spicy)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Break the pretzels in half; I actually have the best luck if I cut them with a very sharp knife.
  • Cut the bacon slices into half.
  • Mix the sugar, chili powder and cayenne in a medium size bowl and then spread it out on a large flat dish.
  • Coat each strip of bacon on both sides with the brown sugar mixture.Press firmly to make sure a lot of it adheres to the bacon.
  • Wrap the bacon around the pretzel.
  • Place the delicious treat on a wire rack placed on top of a baking sheet or roasting pan; I try to make sure that the tail end of the bacon I just wrapped is on the bottom to try and avoid having it 'unwrap' during cooking.
  • Bake for about 10-15 minutes or until bacon cooks and appears crisp.
