Bacon Cookies

---

Pliable chewy bacon cookies with a touch of maple. You must keep your eyes on these during the last couple of minutes. They get brown significantly faster during the end of baking. Slice bacon into small pieces before frying then you won't have to crumble it. Press the bacon between layers of paper towels when cool enough. You will have a buttery cookie with bacon and not a bacon grease cookie.
