Bacon cookies

Bacon cookies have a culinary history that combines traditional flavors with creativity in home cooking. Originating from American cuisine, these cookies emerged as a savory snack ideal for accompanying soups or salads. In various Latin American countries, although they don't have a specific different name, they are commonly known as "bacon crackers" or "bacon biscuits". Their popularity has transcended borders, adapting to local tastes and offering a delicious option for appetizers or snacks.

The combination of crispy bacon with the smoothness of cheddar cheese creates a unique flavor experience that has won over palates in different regions. Furthermore, their simple preparation allows both amateur and expert cooks to easily enjoy them at home.

How to Prepare Bacon Cookies

Remove the rind from the bacon, fry until golden brown on both sides, and chop finely.

Beat the butter until creamy, add the egg yolk, and mix well.

Add grated cheese, mix well.

Add sifted flour and salt, mix until a firm dough is obtained.

Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to a 3 mm thickness.

Cut into circles with a 4 cm fluted cutter.

Place the circles on greased baking sheets, sprinkle with extra bacon and cheese.

Bake in a moderate oven for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.

Let cool on a rack.
