What could be better than bacon in a cookie? Cookies on your grill! Yes you can! With the Grate Griddle you can easily bake on your grill. How about peanut butter and chocolate.
Ingredients
Servings
1 1/4 cup AP Flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons spicy BBQ rub OR 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 pound good quality thick cut bacon
4 tablespoons of unsalted butter- room temp
1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup lightly packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 cup roasted peanuts- roughly chopped
1/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the grill on low to 350 degrees F. Coat Grate Griddle with non stick cooking spray. Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and BBQ rub in a large bowl.
Step 2
Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 4 to 6 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate; reserve 2 tablespoons of the drippings and set aside to cool. Crumble the bacon.
Step 3
Beat the butter and reserved bacon drippings in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Beat in the peanut butter until combined, about 1 minute. Beat in the granulated and light brown sugar until creamy, about 4 minutes, then add the egg and almond extract and beat until light and fluffy, about 2 more minutes.
Step 4
Reduce the mixer speed to low; add the flour mixture in 2 additions, scraping down the bowl as needed, until just combined. Stir in the peanuts and all but 2 tablespoons each of the chocolate chips and bacon.
