Made with just a few ingredients, these stackers offer a quick and unique way to impress guests or satisfy a craving for something both savory and sweet.

Ingredients

• 2 (15 count pkgs) Frozen Phyllo Cups (30 total)
• 1 lb Regular-Cut Bacon (any flavor, such as peppered, hickory-smoked, or maple-flavored; avoid thick-cut bacon, cut in half crosswise)
• 3/4 cup Brown Sugar
• 1/2 cup Maple Syrup (either pancake syrup or real maple syrup will work)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Set the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it with cooking spray. Place the phyllo cups onto the baking sheet and set aside briefly.
2. Cook the Bacon: Fry the bacon in batches in a large skillet until it is just about done but not crispy. The bacon should remain on the chewier side since it will cook more in the oven. Drain the cooked bacon on a paper towel-lined plate and let it cool briefly before chopping it into tiny bits.
3. Fill the Phyllo Cups:
   • Scoop a 1/2 teaspoon of brown sugar into each phyllo cup.
   • Add a small squirt of maple syrup on top of the brown sugar.
   • Fill the phyllo cup with bacon bits, mounding them into the cup.
   • Sprinkle additional brown sugar on top.
4. Bake: Bake the filled phyllo cups for approximately 12-15 minutes or until the phyllo cups and bacon are crisp and the maple caramel is bubbly and caramelized.
5. Cool and Serve: Let the stackers cool for about 5 minutes before serving to allow the caramel to set slightly.
