By itself, in cookies, wrapped around dates, you name it. And then I took it one step further and added bourbon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It seemed like a good idea (adding bourbon to anything is probably a good idea). So basically, my life is complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, wait! That&rsquo;s not all. Ya know what I topped it with? Sea salt. Because you can&rsquo;t have a sweet and savory brittle without a little salt on top (in my world, you can&rsquo;t have anything without a little salt on top).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2250\" src=\"https:\/\/whatmollymade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/bourbonbacon-brittle.jpeg\" alt=\"pieces of bourbon bacon brittle sitting in a mason jar\" class=\"wp-image-196\" srcset=\"https:\/\/whatmollymade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/bourbonbacon-brittle.jpeg 1500w, https:\/\/whatmollymade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/bourbonbacon-brittle-400x600.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/whatmollymade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/bourbonbacon-brittle-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/whatmollymade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/bourbonbacon-brittle-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/whatmollymade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/bourbonbacon-brittle-768x1152.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/whatmollymade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/bourbonbacon-brittle.jpeg\"><\/figure>\n\n\n<div class=\"block-tip cwp-inner has-background has-senary-background-color\">\n\n<p class=\"block-tip__title\">Looking for more treats to leave out at the party?
