Sissy's Kitchen: Where good cooking and great crafts are made

I make these all the time, and they go so quick a real crowd pleaser. I adapted this recipe from a Gormet Caterer I worked for in the early 90's. I never forget a good recipe!

Recipe

1 1/2 Cup of Light Brown Sugar

1 Tbsp. of Cumin

1/2 tsp. Chili Powder ( I don't use this so optional)

you can do a dash of cinnamon, I don't

MIX TOGETHER

Bread Sticks- break in half

Bacon- buy the thin cut (very important). Bring bacon to room temperature, and cut in half. Now dredge each peice of bacon in the brown sugar mixture and wrap around one end of the bread stick in a spiral way to keep some of the end of the bread stick exposed. This is so you can grab it without getting sticky fingers.

 Line a cookie sheet with foil and place the wrapped bacon bread stick onto a rack to bake at 375 for 10-15 min or until crispy. You can serve these right away or at room temperature. If you have to refrigerate, to serve just pop into microwave for 20 or so seconds to bring their color back.
