Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400F.
  2. Lay out the bacon in a single layer on a parchment or foil-lined sheet pan and bake on the center rack for about 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, check every 2 minutes until crispy. No need to turn it. Once done, drain the fat.
  3. While the bacon is in the oven, melt the chocolates over a hot water bath on the stove, keeping the colors separate.
  4. Once melted, pour the white chocolate into a skinny container.
  5. Drizzle some of the dark chocolate on top of the white chocolate (do not stir) and dip the bacon in it. Shake the bacon off gently over an extra plate, and you will see a light striping. Place coated bacon on another sheet pan to dry. Repeat with each strip, tilting the container when the chocolate level gets low and adding more dark chocolate as needed. Every piece will look different.
  6. Chill chocolate-covered bacon for a few hours and liberally sprinkle with peanut butter dust to serve.
