I was graced with this recipe at work and felt like sharing because it's a hit at potlucks and works as an easy but delicious appetizer. You can scale
down this recipe if you'd like I end up making big batches because they disappear.
*These are in no way healthy for you.
Ingredients:
3 packs of bacon (you can use turkey bacon however I've never used it)
3 Boxes of frozen garlic breadsticks (not raw dough the parbaked ones)
2 cups of Sugar
3 TBSP of Cayenne Pepper
Other needed items:
Wooden toothpicks
Aluminium foil (it will save you lots of cleanup time)
Directions:
Turn on the oven so it can start preheating to 350 deg. Cut the breadsticks into bite size pieces 4ths or 5ths works well. Wrap each chunk with bacon
and pin in place with a toothpick, it's easily done if you cut each bacon slice in half. In a gallon size freezer bag or a bowl with a lid mix sugar
and cayenne pepper. Pop a few bacon wrapped garlic bites in and shake so it's coated in the sugar pepper mix. Line 2-3 baking pans with foil and place
the sugar coated bacon garlic bites on in rows, mine end up touching each other but if you'd rather space them out you can. Bake at 350 for 35-45 min
until bacon is cooked, you can drain the grease from the pans partially in but the less you have in the pan the less grease you'll have to worry
about. Let these cool for at least 3-5 minutes and enjoy! Cleanup is just throwing away/recycling the foil.
