Directions

1. Step1

   Preheat Broiler to HIGH. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil; set aside.

2. Step2

   Place ricotta, mascarpone, maple extract, and powdered sugar in a medium bowl. Beat with an electric mixer for 2 to 3 minutes until combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Place mixture into a large piping bag or resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

3. Step3

   Make twelve 5x1-inch cylinders out of aluminum foil. Loosely wrap with 1 piece of bacon, overlapping slightly to prevent gaps. Place on prepared baking sheet and broil 12 to 15 minutes, flipping once halfway through baking.

4. Step4

   Remove bacon from oven and place onto paper towels; cool slightly. When cool enough to handle, carefully remove foil from center of bacon.

   Hyvee Culinary Expert Tip

   Grasp the two ends of exposed foil and twist. The foil should compress to the point that the bacon can slide off easily.
