The Most Unhealthy and Disgusting Cupcake

I think this is an all new low for unhealthy, I saw a penust butter and bacon cupcake for sale. It is the bacon grease in the cupcake and bacon bits in the frosting. I will pass on that, I would have never eaten this even before switching to a healthy diet.

    You nuts? That sounds amazing lol. I'd eat it :love:

    Bacon :heart:

    A peanut butter bacon cake batter ice cream would be my preference actually. Oh yeah, in a chocolate waffle cone too.

    That sounds fantastic. I wouldn't eat the whole thing but there's no way I wouldn't try it.

    I saw a maple bacon cupcake once - I didn't buy it, I still think of it often. I have had a bacon maple bar donut though - it was fabulous.

    Why is it unhealthy?

    Peanut Butter and Bacon Cupcakes! Sounds delicious!


    Ingredients

    1 (1 pound) package bacon
    1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
    1/4 cup bacon grease
    1/4 cup butter, softened
    4 eggs
    1 (18.25 ounce) package butter cake mix
    2/3 cup water

    2 cups creamy peanut butter
    2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature
    5 cups confectioners' sugar
    1/4 cup heavy cream, as needed
    22 whole peanuts

    Directions

    Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Reserve 1/4 cup bacon grease and set aside to cool. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Chop the bacon.
    Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line cupcake pans with paper liners.
    Beat the crunchy peanut butter, bacon grease, and butter with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the peanut butter mixture before adding the next. Pour in the cake mix alternately with the water, mixing until just incorporated. Fold in 2/3 of the chopped bacon; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Pour the batter into prepared cupcake pan, about 2/3 full.
    Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
    To make frosting: Beat the creamy peanut butter and cream cheese together with an electric mixer until light fluffy. Gradually stir in the confections' sugar. Mix in enough heavy cream to thin out the frosting, if needed.
    Spread the frosting over the cooled cupcakes. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/3 portion of chopped bacon, and top with a whole peanut.

    Fat is fat. Whether its vegetable, or animal. You can use it all in cooking; sounds like something I need to try.

    To each their own, I guess. Regardless of being unhealthy or not, it sounds gross to me.

    I've had a 'Pancake Maple Bacon' cupcake before and it was AWESOME! Basically, the cupcake tasted like a denser/moister pancake. Then it was frosted with maple buttercream and topped with crisp crumbled bacon. It tasted like a delicious breakfast in form of a cupcake. Yum!

    I'm with you, I say it sounds disgusting too!......If it isn't disgusting..... I don't want to know about it. For sure it sounds artery clogging.

    local donut place made blueberry donuts with a maple syrup icing and a dusting of bacon on top. It was fantastic! Sadly they went out of business when they tried to open a second location during a weak economy. :( They made some of the best pumpkin donuts I ever had too.

    Sorry, but the idea of peanut butter + bacon makes me iffy. I love bacon in various forms, and I love peanut butter, but I'm hesitant on this one.

    EDIT: And there's the whole "bacon grease" thing. *shudder* No thanks.

    Sorry.....IMHO bacon just has no place whatsoever in a cupcake. cupcakes are just that...small cakes, and cakes are supposed to be sweet not greasy

    Looks like it tastes like...guilt. I'll use my calories on food that makes me feel good about myself - before, during, and after the meal.
