Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies

This post is sponsored by Country Crock^®. All opinions are my own.

I hope you all saw the delicious Turtle Cookies  I made after I was challenged by Leigh Anne (another blogger friend) to make a new version of an old classic, chocolate chip cookies.  They were delicious and so easy to make because I used the Country Crock^® Make It Yours™ Cookie Recipe.

I was so inspired that I decided to make another cookie. These are Bacon and Chocolate Chip Cookies and they are oh my goodness yum!  I’m not sure which one I love more!

Who would have thought to put bacon in cookies?  I know that’s what you’re thinking – but guys it’s going to be your new favorite!  If you’ve had chocolate covered bacon – you’ll know I’m right on track with this delicious recipe!
