Thanks to all who have identified the (true?) source of this recipe. At BT, we make every attempt to be fair and ethical, and we call out original sources whenever we know them. But… we are not journalists, and as such we don’t do extensive (or any) fact checking. If a reader sends us something interesting about bacon, we generally write it up, since what we care about here is bacon.

And really, does anything other than bacon really matter?

Thanks for reading!

@df – while I agree that this is the same as the recipe posted on vanilla garlic, that post was published with a CC license: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/

which, in a nutshell, says you are free to copy/distribute this wherever, but you may not alter it [so it must be "word for word"] OTOH, the one part that “Becca R.” failed to include was attribution to the original author.

ironically, by pointing this out, you (and I) have made the attribution clear

Tom

p.s., one other thing: the above CC license includes a “non-commercial” clause, so you’re not allowed to profit it by it. Since I don’t see any overt/click-thru advertising on this site, I think BT is pretty much in the clear on this

Ben, it is funny! But in a sort of a “that’s wrong” way. I used sea salt and it worked just fine

I realize it’s just a phrase and not a genuine dietary restriction, but does anybody else find it funny that the recipe for bacon cupcakes calls for “kosher” salt?

that is to say, Becca (or her source) not Mr. B

The recipe is pretty much verbatim. It’s not to say that you (or your source) necessarily got it directly from this Vanilla Garlic blog, but it is the same recipe, word for word.

Becca, I made these and they came out just great! Photos and description of my adventure are here… http://www.hedonistreview.com I also followed Lady’s recommendation and doubled the cakes and tripled the frosting. Still not quite enough frosting if you want them to be decadent (and what Hedonist doesn’t want that?). Maybe double the frosting for a single batch of cakes? Really lovely though, thank you!

I made them! Check them out here.

If you try it, double the recipe for the cupcakes and triple for the icing, because it only makes about 10 (and frosts about 7…)
Be careful not to add too much maple syrup because it really will break the batter.
Happy baconing!!
