Oh, you guys! When I read this recipe (yes! unique it is, midge!) I just knew I couldn't make you all suffer the pain of not reading it also. There could be no more perfect combination, cl and just imagine that breakfast, ga... bacon, eggs and chocolate! I agree that it is a devilish treat, robert. We all need a little of that imp sometimes! Enjoy!

Oh my, no! Your look wonderful and they're for real too, andi. My picture is just an image from the web.. please feel free, any time at all. When I told my hubby about these he screwed his face up like a kid taking castor oil! I will definitely let him know that you actually made them and loved them! Thanks for your picture and your 5, andi!
