Bacon chocolate chip cookies

Candied bacon
1 pkg thick cut bacon
brown sugar

Chocolate chip cookies
2 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs (room temp)
1 pkg Ghirardelli 60% bitter-sweet chocolate chips

1. Candied bacon: preheat the oven to 350 F. Lay bacon on  parchment covered baking sheet so they are not overlapping. Sprinkle about 2 tsp brown sugar evenly on each strip of bacon. Bake for 12 minutes, remove, flip bacon & drag it through the syrupy liquid collected on the baking sheet. Cook bacon back in the oven for another 12-15 minutes, until it is fully cooked and dark. Remove the strips from the sheet and cool on a wire rack. When cool - chop them or quickly food process into tiny pieces.

2. Cookies: Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl. Beat butter, sugars and vanilla in a large bowl. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in chocolate chips  and bacon pieces.

3. Spoon dough onto ungreased baking sheet and bake at 375 F for 8-10 minutes. Remove and let cool! God Bless the pig!
