I’ve contemplated the idea of using leftover bacon fat in a cake for a while and decided now was the time to jump. I mean…if you can’t have fun with cake, what’s the point?! So next time you cook up some bacon, don’t discard that bacon grease. Pour it into a cup and let it solidify. Leave in those teeny tiny little flecks of bacon too. They’re like caramelized little pieces of yum.
