Janice's Bacon Chicken Liver Appetizer

Submitted by Chef JJ HOFF

"I was at my friend Janice's home over twenty years ago when she brought these out. They were a hit then (everyone wanted the recipe) and have produced the same reaction every time I've made them. Try these and I know you will make them again and again for so many different reasons. When baking you may want to use a broiler pan so the bacon grease can drain off. I've baked them of cookie sheets and they are great, just a little more bacon flavor. Simply drain them before rolling in cheese. These are good cold or warmed over. ENJOY soak toothpicks in water"
