Now – for me, there is only ONE chocolate chip cookie recipe and that is the Nestle Tollhouse recipe! But…what if I added bacon to that??? Hmmmmm??
If you are more adventourous than I and make your cookies from other recipes, then give this a try…looks like the key is candying the bacon first…
Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon cardamom
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 stick butter
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 3 strips of bacon
- 1/8 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon molasses
- ground pepper
In a small cup or vessel, mix together the molasses and brown sugar. Lightly coat the bacon with the sugar mixture and play on a baking sheet. Bake in the oven at 350 degrees while mixing the cookies, until crispy and cooked through. Remove from oven and let cool on a rack with some paper towels. Crumble and remove any sticky, fatty parts.
In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and cardamom.
In a seperate bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Mix in the egg and vanilla and continue beating until thoroughly combined. Stir in the flour mixture with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, until all mixed together. Gently stir in the chocolate chips and bacon.
Take tablespoon full amounts of cookie dough and place evenly on a cookie tray. Bake at 350 for 9-11 minutes, until just golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
