How to Make Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ¾ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in 2 cups chocolate chips and 4 ounces cooked and crumbled bacon (patted dry).
- Chill the dough for at least 1 hour (or up to 24 hours).
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Roll dough into 1 ½-inch balls and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Gently flatten each ball with a fork.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until edges are golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While cookies cool, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 cups powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon maple extract, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 2-4 tablespoons milk or water until smooth.
- Once cookies are completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top of each cookie. Top with a small piece of crispy bacon, if desired.
