OMG! My girlfriend made these and sent me the recipe. Since MFP is comprised of bacon lovers and addicts, I figured I would pass along this very UNhealthy recipe.

Combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water in a saucepan until boiling. Add 1.25lbs of raw cashews and stir continuously. Use a pastry brush dipped in water to occasionally wipe the inside of the pot.

When the water evaporates and the sugar is caramelized, stir in 1/4 cup diced cooked bacon. Turn off the heat, and add half of the bacon fat from cooking and 1 tablespoon of butter, and smoked salt to taste. Transfer to a greased cookie sheet to cool, then break apart.
