Ingredients

• 2 1/4 cups - Flour
• 1 teaspoon - Baking Soda
• 1/2 teaspoon - Salt
• 2 Sticks - Butter ( soft )
• 3/4 cup - Sugar
• 3/4 cup - Brown Sugar
• 2 teaspoons - Vanilla
• 2 Eggs
• 1 cup - Ghirardelli Milk Chocolate Chips
• 1 cup - Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate Chips
• 8 Thick - Slices Of Bacon ( cooked)

Preparation

Cook the bacon until golden and crispy ( my husband does it on the BBQ ) set aside in the fridge to cool. Mix the flour and baking soda in a bowl and set aside. Beat the butter, sugar, and brown sugar at medium speed until creamy and light in color ( about 4 minutes ). Add the vanilla and one egg at a time on low speed until well combined. Gradually add in the flour mixture into the creamed mixture, stir in the chips and cut the bacon into pieces about the same size as the chips and mix well. Drop onto a parchment, lined baking sheet and cook in a 375 degree oven for 10-13 minutes. Let cool on baking sheet for about 1 minutes then transfer to waxed paper.
