1. In a small saucepan bring the maple syrup to a boil. Remove from heat.
5. Whisk the gelatin mixture into the maple syrup mixture. Set aside. Whisk occasionally for the next hour. (I did this about every 10 minutes)
7. Remove from refrigerator and put in edible cookie cups.

Great job on this challenge. I completed it the night before because I kept putting it off! I like your cookie cups, they sound like they would be perfect for a lot of desserts!

I never knew how they stuffed cupcakes - I like your idea of using a glass to make the indentation - so much easier than using a piping bag!

Fabulous combination - just like bacon with pancakes! Can't wait to give it a try!

Just stoppin' by from Made it on Monday and I am very intrigued by your recipe. I think the maple and bacon would compliment each other nicely. I just might have to bookmark this one and make it myself.
