If you love the flavor combination of sweet & salty, then you are going to just love this recipe round-up of 15 Bacon for Dessert Recipes.


Bacon for Dessert week and Bacon Month are both coming to a close, but don't be sad, friends.  
In fact, it just might be impossible to be sad when you have these 30 sweet & salty bacon-licious dessert recipes to browse through! ;)

If I haven't convinced you that bacon is not just for breakfast and savory dishes by now with the Candied Bacon S'mores Pizza and Bacon & Pretzel Chocolate Chip Cookies I posted earlier this week, then one of these desserts below is bound to. 

From ice creams to cookies to pies to brownies and more, every single one of these desserts has at least one thing in common...
Bacon, glorious bacon.

Bacon Cheeseburger Tatchos

These Bacon Cheeseburger Tatchos are a fun and delicious combination of two of your favorites- a classic bacon cheeseburger and nachos- minus the bun and the tortilla chips...

These Bacon Cheeseburger Tatchos are about to totally shake up your weeknight dinner plans, folks. ;)
What exactly are tatchos, you may be asking?





Some people call them totchos. Some people call them tatchos.
But they both start with the same thing- crispy, golden tater tots!
Think nachos, but tater tots are taking over the role of tortilla chips. 





For this tasty take on tatchos, I steered away from the traditional Mexican nacho toppings and went 100% American classic with all the flavors of one of everyone's favorite burgers- the bacon cheeseburger.





Golden brown tater tots are smothered with perfectly seasoned ground beef, melty shredded cheese, mustard, ketchup, chopped tomatoes and pickles, shredded lettuce, and crispy bacon.





Of course, you could add whichever toppings you like and omit the ones you do not like.  
These Bacon Cheeseburger Tatchos are sure to be a hit with everyone in your family and weeknight friendly too since you can have these on the table in about 30 minutes...
