Add bacon in one layer on a rack. Place the rack on an aluminum foil lined rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle bacon with brown sugar. Place baking sheet in oven.
Turn oven to 425°F. You want to put the bacon in a cold oven and allow it to bake as the oven preheats so the bacon candies properly! Cook for approximately 20 to 35 minutes (time may vary based on how quickly your oven heats up, so check it a couple of times). Remove from oven when done and chop. Set aside.
In the bowl of a food processor, add goat cheese, cream cheese, olive oil, and salt. Process until smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed. This goat cheese mixture can be kept in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
Spread goat cheese mixture in a serving bowl. Top with salsa in the center and sprinkle with chopped candied bacon. Sprinkle over fresh herbs as a garnish (parsley or cilantro works great!), if desired.
Serve with toasted bread slices.
