• 1/2 cup of chopped nuts optional, for topping
• 1/4 cup of sprinkles optional, for topping

Instructions:

Set the oven temperature to 375F 190C

Arrange the bacon slices on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet

Bake the bacon for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the desired crispness is achieved, in a preheated oven

Take it out of the oven and allow it to cool on paper towels to get rid of any extra grease

Mix the vegetable oil and semi-sweet chocolate chips in a bowl that is safe to use in the microwave

Microwave the chocolate for 30 seconds at a time, stirring after each to ensure it melts completely and becomes smooth

Coat every bacon slice completely by dipping it into the melted chocolate

Let the extra chocolate fall off

Return the bacon slices covered in chocolate to the baking sheet lined with parchment paper

While the chocolate is still wet, top the bacon covered in chocolate with chopped nuts or colorful sprinkles, if preferred

The bacon coated in chocolate should be chilled for approximately half an hour, or until the chocolate solidifies

Take the bacon out of the refrigerator and chop it into smaller pieces once the chocolate has solidified

Present the chocolate-coated bacon in eye-catching boxes or bags as delectable presents
