I recently attended a potluck party celebrating a friend's move, so given the situation, we were told to only bring finger food. Well, I thought, what better finger food is there than butter tarts?
I had stopped by 13th Street Bakery in St. Catharines, Ontario to pick up a some of their renowned tarts, when I spotted a new variety nestled in the bakery case: Bacon butter tarts. Are you kidding me?! These butter tarts blew me (and my friends) away with their salty-sweet decadence. Those butter tarts were the inspiration for these tasty maple-walnut bacon skewers. Enjoy them as an hors d'oeuvres, or as a brunch accompaniment — either way they're pretty heavenly. You know, I'm beginning to think that the virtues of bacon are endless.
