MMMMM--------------------MAPLE CINNAMON GLAZE-------------------------
2 c Powdered sugar
1 tb Maple extract
1 ts Vanilla extract

Water to make a thick glaze

The best flavors of breakfast together in a cookie:
chocolate chip with generous bits of bacon and a
bonus (optional) maple glaze.

Preheat oven to 350øF/175øC.

Beat together the butter, sugars, flavoring and eggs
until creamy. In another bowl, sift together the dry
ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mix
and stir together. Dough will be slightly soft. If you
want a cakier cookie, add another half cup of flour. Add
in chocolate chips and bacon bits. Stir until well
integrated. Place dough on a sheet of waxed paper and
refrigerate at least an hour.

Remove dough from fridge, pinch off 1 1/2" pieces of
dough and roll into balls. Set dough balls about 2"
apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten dough balls
slightly with your fingers in the center.

Bake cookies for about 10 minutes, or until the dough
starts to turn golden brown. Allow cookies to cool on a
cooling rack.

NOTE: It takes about 2 lbs of bacon to make 2 cups of
bacon bits, just for future reference. Just be sure to
pat the bacon to remove all the extra grease.

MAKE THE OPTIONAL GLAZE: Mix all ingredients together
until smooth and creamy. If lumpy, use a whisk.

Spread a small amount of the glaze on the top of each
cookie.

Yield: 12 servings
