I made this for a gathering where bacon was designated as the theme—it was a huge hit. People stood in line for it. It was fun to watch adults and kids together torching their marshmallow. The bacon was a subtle flavor that played well with the chocolate and chipotle. The interaction of people creating their own desserts brought much laughter. —Lisa Benoit, Cookeville, Tennessee

Ingredients
- 1 pound bacon strips
- 1 package (18-1/2 ounces) caramel swirl brownie mix (8-inch square pan size), such as Ghirardelli
- 1/4 cup water
- 3 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 large egg, room temperature

- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup marshmallow creme
- 1 cup hot caramel ice cream topping
- 6 whole graham crackers, coarsely chopped

Directions
- Preheat oven to 425°. Place a wire rack in a 15×10x1-inch baking pan. Place bacon strips in a single layer on rack. Bake until crisp, about 20 minutes. When cool enough to handle, chop bacon; set aside. Reserve 2 tablespoons drippings.
- Reduce oven setting to 325°. Line an 8-in. square baking pan with foil, letting ends extend up sides; grease foil. Set aside caramel packet from brownie mix. In a large bowl, combine brownie mix, water, oil, egg, chipotle powder and reserved bacon drippings. Stir in chocolate chips and half the chopped bacon. Transfer to prepared pan. Swirl in caramel packet included with brownie mix. Bake and cool as package directs.
- Serve brownies with marshmallow creme, caramel, graham crackers, remaining bacon and, if desired, ice cream.
