Bacon Bites
12 pieces bacon, not thick cut
24 buttery crackers
fresh ground black pepper
grated Parmesan cheese, optional

Cut bacon strips in half and wrap around each cracker. Place on wire rack over a foil-lined jellyroll pan with sides and bake in 300 degree oven for 25 minutes or until bacon is crisp. In the last 10 minutes of baking, and if you would like, you may sprinkle a bit of grated Parmesan cheese over each Bacon Bite, then continue baking. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store in refrigerator if you dare have any left. Makes 24 pieces.

Make a memorable Christmas Eve. The festivities begin when the first star shines in the evening sky.

    Has anyone tried these? Do the crackers get soggy?

      The crackers did not get soggy for me, I cooked until bacon was crispy.
