"I was at the General's house for a brunch and these were so good I had to ask for the recipe! They're sweet and salty - a favorite combination of mine. My son asks for them all the time - and how can you go wrong with bacon? Hope you enjoy!"

Made as written for the FF&F Best of 2014 event & touted by "AcadiaTwo" as a 2014 fave - My DH & BIL walk together on Sat mornings & we trade hosting a brunch after their wkly walks. I often tease them that their brunch is an excuse to have dessert when the sun is rising vs setting. Like the other reviewer, I also left out the raisins as DH is diet restricted for them. These are delicious bites of goodness & easy-to-fix. I could have eaten all of them w/some fruit & my coffee (or at least tried), but the boys would not have allowed that to happen. An encore has already been requested. :-)

OMG! These are so good, and they would be even better if I had used regular bacon as opposed to low sodium. I didn't even think about that as I always get low sodium. These taste similar to a recipe from my childhood. I omitted the raisins. I recommend to do a double batch so the cookies can be a bit bigger. They didn't expand that much to warrant keeping 7" between them. The very first group I made were as directed and were bite sized at 1 teaspoon worth of batter. So the rest of them I made at 1 tablespoon sized with I rolled into a ball before placing them on bakers parchment line cookie sheet with a lip. I think almonds would be great in these too.
