Day 17! One week, just ONE WEEK until Christmas! Today I’m featuring bacon. Who doesn’t like bacon, right? Unfortunately the best picture I got of these cookies completely disappeared from my hard drive while I was editing it. It was already erased from my camera card, too. Sigh! These cookies kind of taste like you’re eating walnut pancakes with bacon all rolled into one!

Bacon definitely makes everything taste better! I love bacon brownies and chocolate chip cookies. Will have to give this one a try!

My husband would LOVE bacon in cookies. Great idea! We’re off of sugar and grains, so I would definitely have to make some substitutes but a bacon/walnut base might be a good start!
