Bacon Parmesan Cookies

It school holidays now and my niece was at my house over the weekend.. Thought of having some aunty-niece bonding and so I have decided to bake some cookies. A fan of Laura in the Kitchen, I like to use her recipe because it is so easy to follow and so delicious.. yummieh! So I took her recipe on Bacon Parmesan cookies - a savory cookie that I miss eating.. 

My niece had so much fun making them.. Very hassle free and not messy. I must add that this is a kid friendly recipe, something you can do with your kid.. My niece loved the process and wants to bake more with me.. Mission accomplished!

Makes About 2 Dozen
Ingredients: 

• ½ cup of Unsalted Butter at room temperature
• 1 cup of Shredded Parmiggiano Reggiano
• 1 Tbsp of Brown Sugar
• 1 ¼ cups of All Purpose Flour
• 2 Eggs
• 1 tsp of Freshly Chopped Rosemary
• 10 Slices of Cooked Bacon, crumbled
• ½ tsp of Baking Soda
• ½ Tsp of Baking Powder

The original recipe calls for ½ tablespoon of salt. Baked once following the recipe and it was way tooooooo salty even for someone like me. This time round without the salt, It was still a bit salty, might need to lower the amount of cheese as well. 

1. Preheat the oven to 190C and place some parchment paper on a couple baking sheets, set aside
2. In a small bowl, combine together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside
3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, parmigginao regginano, brown sugar and rosemary. Add the eggs and mix until you have a creamy mixture
4. Add the dry mixture and mix to combine. Fold in the bacon crumbles
5. Using a cookie scoop, drop the cookies on the parchment line baking sheet. Bake for 12 to 14 minute or until golden brown
6. Let them cool completely

Cookies... Yay.. Something I like..
