Maple Bacon Rice Krispy Treats

So I missed the bandwagon when maple bacon treats came around. Then I must have dozed off when chocolate bacon treats were making the rounds. So I thought I'd make up for it by throwing it all together. This is by far my craziest Rice Krispie treat yet. It has cinnamon, maple syrup, bacon, chocolate and sea salt. If you think all these don't belong together, then you will just have to make some for yourself to see that oh yeah baby, it does and you can't each just one.
