Calories: 294kcal
Ingredients
- 1 1/8 cup Butter (softened at room temperature)
- 4 Tbsp Bacon Grease (cooled and solidify)
- 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
- 3/4 cup Brown Sugar
- 2 Large Eggs
- 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 2 1/4 cups All Purpose Flour
- 2 tsp Cornstarch
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 7 slices Bacon (cooked crisp and roughly chopped)
- 2 cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a medium size bowl, stir together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt.
- In a large separate bowl, beat together the butter, bacon grease and both sugar with a hand held mixer or a stand up mixer. Then add in the eggs and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- Gradually stir the flour mixture into the butter until just combined. I recommend stirring in the flour by hand and be careful not to over mix.
- Then fold in the chopped bacon and chocolate chips.
- Place the cookie dough onto a baking sheet using a cook scoop or rounded tablespoon.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges of the cookies are slightly browned.
- Remove the pan from the oven and allow the cookies to sit on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then move them to wire racks to cool completely.
- Then the cookies are ready to serve and enjoy!
Notes
Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container or ziplock bag at room temperature for up to 1 week. I store a piece of bread in the container with the cookies to keep them moist.
