How to Make Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies With Maple Cinnamon Glaze
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, ½ cup packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 large eggs in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in 2 cups chocolate chips and 4 ounces cooked and crumbled bacon.
- The dough will be slightly soft. For a cakier cookie, add an additional ½ cup of flour.
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Remove dough from refrigerator. Roll into 1-inch balls and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Gently flatten each ball slightly with your fingers.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the 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.
- **Maple-Cinnamon Glaze:** In a small bowl, whisk together 2 cups powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon maple extract, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 3-4 tablespoons of milk or water until smooth and creamy. Add more liquid if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Once the cookies are completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top of each cookie.
- Garnish with a small piece of crumbled crisp bacon (optional).
