I followed the recipe to the letter, but ended up with a crumbly mess that refuses to form any shape (I could barely even get it to form a few large balls, let alone a few logs)!! I truly don't have any idea what went wrong, and I was really looking forward to making these. If anyone has any thoughts on this, I'd love to hear them!! :( Well, I’m seriously frustrated.

They turned out quite tasty and I think people will appreciate the smoky sweet salty mixture. If I do it again though, I will go with a maple bacon instead. I had really good hickory bacon on hand and the hickory is not shy with this batch. HA! I thought I might have gotten the brownie to crust ratio a bit unbalanced, but I'm a crust girl and I'm happy with it. Bacon is truly the candy of meat. Thanks for the vote of confidence Ashley!

I know this is so out of date and you have a lot going on but I was wondering...could I make this as a crust/base for changing regular turtle brownies into a thinner slightly savory turtle brownie bar? I am making something for a Festivus pot luck and I was imagining a turtle brownie with hidden bacony smokiness. Could I pat this down into a tray, cook it for a bit, add the brownie batter and finish it off in the oven? Do you think it could work? xoxox and Merry Christmas! If you can't get back to me, I understand and will take a shot anyway! :) Ashley, I have a quick question.

They are delicious and melty and sweet and salty. I haven't even filled them yet. I'm not using ice cream, but a caramel buttercream. They are so unique. Summertime.. will try ice cream.
