• Ready In: 23mins
• Ingredients: 8
• Yields: 24-36 cookies
• Serves: 24-36

ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon table salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened (2 sticks)
• 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
• 1 cup white sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1⁄2 cup finely chopped cooked bacon, well-drained (or more)

directions

1. Preheat oven to 325°F.
2. Sift dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
3. In the work bowl of a stand mixer (or in a large bowl with a hand-held electric mixer), cream butter and both sugars until fluffy and mostly smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing until fully incorporated.
4. Turn the mixer down to low and add dry ingredients, a little at a time, until incorporated.
5. Stir in chopped bacon by hand with a spoon.
6. Place spoonfuls of dough (1 to 1 1/2 tbsp each) on parchment- or Silpat-lined cookie sheet. Press down with back of fork. Bake in preheated oven 14-18 minutes, rotating back-to-front after 7 minutes. (For best results, bake only one sheet at a time, in the middle of the oven.).
7. When cookies are golden brown, remove from oven and transfer to a rack to cool.
