Maple-flavoured whiskey is the star in this recipe, along with delicious thick-cut Bacon, of course! The secret to getting it more crispy and retaining all of the flavours? Cornstarch! When you boost it with ground cayenne, black pepper, brown sugar and a little more maple syrup, you get what I call a delectable, crispy sweet/savoury snack that no one can resist!
