Thats right I said it, then I did it...Bacon Sugar Cookies. I got the idea after hearing about Voodoo Doughnuts in Portland Oregon, they have a Bacon Maple Bar, and I thought why not. I used the sugar cookie recipe I posted a few days ago (see building our garden), then I made a maple frosting using 1 1/2 cups confectioners sugar, 1/3 cup maple syrup, and 1 1/2 tablespoons heavy cream, whisked together. I cooked bacon on cooling racks (thank you honey) sat inside cake pans so the fat drips off in a 300 degree oven for 30 minutes, then finely diced it. After the cookies have cooled I frosted them with the new frosting spreader (thanks again honey) I got for my anniversary present, then sprinkled the diced bacon bits over them.
You may also notice I am using a new rolling pin (thanks Shanna), now i just have to make Enchiladas in a few weeks. Seems like a fair trade to me. Well that is it for tonight, see you all soon.
Everything is better with bacon!!!
