Honey-cured bacon, Stilton and chocolate sandwich recipe

My favourite brunch sandwich is a combination of honey-cured bacon, rich dark chocolate and ripe tangy Stilton. Mouth-watering and satisfying.

Ingredients
  • 4 thick slices of hand-cut, crusty white bread
  • 1 cup soft salted butter, for spreading
  • 50 g (1.8oz) Venezuelan 72% dark chocolate
  • 6 rashers honey-cured bacon
  • 75 g (2.6oz) very ripe Stilton

Step-by-step

  1. Preheat the grill until very hot. Lightly toast the bread on both sides, then spread with butter. Grate the chocolate on top and return to the grill briefly to melt.
  2. Remove and immediately put the bacon under the grill until the edges are crisp and caramelised. Place on top of the chocolate and finish with a generous crumbling of Stilton.
  3. Lay the remaining buttered slice on top and press firmly. Cut diagonally and enjoy.
