Bacon (Yes, Bacon!) Peanut Butter Cookies

Submitted by DreamoBway

"Every summer my friends throw a party they like to call Meatfest. It's a barbeque where meat is all that's eaten. Buns are allowed, but chips and salads are definitely frowned upon. It's all in good fun, and when I say Meatfest, I mean MEATFEST! A typical menu includes lion, bear, deer, buffalo, antelope, raccoon, squirrel, yak, camel, ostrich, and frog. So dessert has to have meat, too! Fellow Zaar member, MsKittyKat, had the brilliant idea of mixing peanut butter and bacon - two of my favorite ingredients. This cookie was the result. Pamela's baking mix is a gluten free flour blend. Please feel free to use all-purpose flour if you choose. These cookies are crispy and sweet with a little pop of savory flavor when you bite into the bacon. They're sure to be the talk of any occasion!"
