Bacon Cookies recipe

2 servings

Ingredients:

4 slices bacon, cut into small pieces

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup butter or margarine, chilled

1 egg

1 pinch salt

3 tablespoons heavy cream

1 dash ground black pepper

1 egg yolk, beaten

Instructions:

Fry bacon pieces in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy.

Remove with a slotted spoon to paper towels, and cool completely.

Into a large mixing bowl, place the flour, butter or margarine, egg, salt, and heavy cream.

Using the mixer's hook attachment, mix the contents of the bowl together until combined; then transfer the dough to the counter, and quickly mix with your hands.

Knead in cooled bacon pieces and pepper.

Roll up the dough into a log, to a diameter of about 1 1/2 inches.

Wrap in aluminum foil, and refrigerate for 2 hours, until firm.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Remove foil, cut dough roll into slices, and place slices on greased baking sheet.

Brush each slice with beaten egg yolk.

Bake in a preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, until brown.

Remove to a wire wrack until cooled completely.
