Updated: Jun 4, 2024

Crunchy peanuts, salty bacon, sweet chocolate, and maple syrup—have we gone too far? You might think so, and certainly there’s no need to improve upon a perfect chocolate chip cookie. But this is one of those times where texture is all. Salty and sweet, this is a cookie for the holiday celebration!


PREP TIME: 15 MINUTES + 30 MINUTES FOR CHILLING

SERVES: 24 cookies


INGREDIENTS: 8 slices thick-cut bacon

1/2 cup (1 stick / 115 g) unsalted butter, at room temperature

1 tablespoon Crown Maple Dark Color Robust Taste organic maple syrup

3 tablespoons good-quality bourbon

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar

1/2 cup (75 g) Crown Maple organic maple sugar

1 teaspoon fine sea salt

2 large eggs

2. cups (290 g) all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup (85 g) chocolate chips

1/2 cup (70 g) chopped roasted peanuts


DIRECTIONS:

Fry the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until very crispy, about 10

minutes; transfer the finished bacon to a paper towel–lined plate. Chop the

cooled bacon into small pieces. You should have about . cup

(115 g) chopped bacon.


In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, maple

syrup, bourbon, vanilla, sugars, and salt together. Stir in the eggs one at

a time until incorporated, then add the flour and baking soda and stir to

combine. Stir in the bacon, chocolate chips, and peanuts until incorporated

throughout. Put the bowl in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, to let the dough

firm up slightly.


Preheat the oven to 350˚. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat

or parchment paper.


Drop heaping teaspoon–size balls of the dough onto the prepared baking

sheet, spacing them about 2 inches (5 cm) apart so they have room to

spread. Bake for 12 minutes, until they are fragrant and puff ed up and have

turned almond brown. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly, then serve

warm. Leftover cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

These cookies look amazing with that maple-bacon-bourbon combo! For a fun break between baking sessions, I've been enjoying Scale the Depths — a relaxing browser fishing and scaling game with some great player notes.

This flavor combo sounds absolutely wild, but I’m honestly intrigued by the bacon and bourbon mix. I usually prefer keeping things simple, but I think I’ll give these a shot this weekend. I was actually looking for some dessert inspiration while using Remove Text From Video to clean up some old clips, and this recipe popped up at the perfect time.
